The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Dina meyer is not all that beautiful in spite of buildups by her press corps but that doesn't bother me as much as having gary hudson in this film...this guy is a real zero and has the intelligence quotient of the dirt under a tomato plant...having him in a cast with women is disturbing indeed and makes your skin crawl like you have some incurable disease...being a decoy is scary enough...risking death is plain stupid....redo this script and make it more cogent

Dina Meyer stars as a troubled decoy for a detective agency in DECEPTION, a 2003 Lifetime movie. She is sick of the job and ends up being threatened by a past client while yet another past client suddenly reappears in her life and claims to have strong feelings for her. Suddenly, a fellow decoy is slain, possibly by her boyfriend, and shortly thereafter Meyer and her roommate are both attacked. And then a second murder occurs, this time one of Meyer's fellow detective agency workers. The plot may keep you guessing for a bit, although the number of suspects is pretty thin. Meyer doffs her clothes three times, twice to have sex with the new boyfriend. I think it's probably in her contract. She is an amazingly beautiful woman, and she turns 40 this year. Bravo.

This is a fairly routine but still entertaining made for TV murder mystery movie. Much of it is predictable but the writers have left room in the script for a few surprises, especially toward the end when Erin (Dina Meyer) begins to see the truth, or thinks she sees the truth. The story concerns a decoy who is on the payroll of a local private dick. Her job is to set up married men whose wives are clients who want to see their husbands in compromising positions for various reasons usually involving money. Erin feels cheap about her job but desperately needs the money. Along the way she falls for one of the married men who seeks to get back at her after he is exposed to his wife. In turn he falls for her. Added to this is a former cheating husband she exposed who is out to kill her. The acting is average to above average for a television flick. One part of the film bothered me. Why did Erin keep using the alley by the PI's office when she was nearly murdered there? Wasn't there another way out of the building that had more light and more security? And why did she always walk the alley alone? Oh, well, that's television land.

The movie start and after barely ten minutes into it, I start to realize, This is one of those movies where someone is being threatened by person unknown- only in this case, Everybody Knows! The movie has some exciting moments, but overall it's just too predictable.The storyline is thin and the characters unbelievable. Erin is an non trusting, traumatized actress, who doubles as a decoy for married men. Then, in an obvious twist, she falls in-love with one of her "clients". She doesn't want him, but she can't help herself… This of course, makes you watch the movie as if you are watching a commercial. Without likable, interesting characters and with a predictable story, I just lose interest.I guess it's my own fault. I expected too much from a movie like this.
