I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
View MoreThat was an excellent one.
Dreadfully Boring
It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
View MoreIt sounded like an interesting enough story. Bonnie's husband's ex-wife gets killed and she decides to look into who killed the woman. Unfortunately, even just that simple description was better than the whole movie. From the moment the killer came on screen, it was pretty clear the identity of the killer. It felt too obvious, and I figured the writers had to have done a better job than that. I was almost convinced that this person had to be innocent, but no one else ever stood out at all as even possibly being the killer. Do yourself a favor, and don't bother watching the movie. It's not worth your time. The killer doesn't even bother looking innocent at any point throughout the movie. There's really not a whole lot of surprises in the movie, and the acting isn't all that great either.
View MoreBonnie, a real estate agent, gets a call from Joan, the ex-wife of her husband Ross. Joan drinks and has had problems coping with life for years (she had a daughter who drowned because she left the girl for just a minute). But Joan claims Bonnie and her 6-year-old daughter Amanda are in danger, so Bonnie reluctantly closes down her open house and rushes to Joan's aid. Joan is dead, apparently murdered.Joan and Ross have two teenagers, son Sam and daughter Lauren. Sam doesn't seem to be grieving, although he has turned bitter over his mother's resistance to contact between her children and Ross. So it's hard to tell with Sam. Lauren isn't much better off.Who killed Joan? One suspect is Bonnie's brother Nick, who is out of prison and living with their widowed father, who has never met his granddaughter because Bonnie is mad at her father for some reason.Ross is a TV news anchor, and he seems awfully chummy with co-anchor Maria. He and Bonnie don't seem to have the best marriage.Bonnie calls her best friend Diana, a lawyer, for advice.As the investigation gets under way, Bonnie tries to patch things up with her father and brother, and she learns to be a mother to the two teens, who are having a hard time adjusting to their new situation. Making things harder is Sam's 6-foot python--which is not even full-grown. The snake doesn't seem to have a real purpose.There's nothing that special here. I suppose it's an interesting enough mystery, but by the end I wasn't sure I knew who did what. Some suspicious things were going on, but I didn't feel satisfied. Brooklynn Proulx is adorable. I suppose she's the best thing about the movie. But kids her age shouldn't be watching this. If anyone else was any good, maybe Landon Liboiron as the brooding Sam. Actually, in their brief roles, Larry Austin as the minister and Samantha Kaine as Bonnie's doctor.Several flirtatious women added some comedy, but I could never keep up with which one was which. I suppose this was okay.
View MoreBonnie, a real estate agent, receives a distress call from the ex-wife of her husband. In it, she warns Bonnie her life and that of her young daughter, Amanda, are in danger. Not knowing what to do, Bonnie goes to see her, and to her horror, she finds the woman sprawled on the floor, obviously the victim of foul play. Lauren, the teenage daughter of the dead woman, doesn't register any emotion at all. It's clear Lauren resents the presence of the new wife of her father in her own house.Bonnie, who on the surface appears to have a good thing going with Ross, has no choice but to bring Lauren and her brother Sam to live with her. This of course, is met with resentment by both siblings who regard Bonnie as a stranger. Bonnie soon discovers that the threat Ross' former wife told her about is real. Soon, strange things are happening.The appearance of Nick, Bonnie's estranged brother at the cemetery proves to add another dimension to the tension that was created by the crime she witnessed. Bonnie, we learn later on when she goes to visit her parents' house, has never forgiven her own father for running away from home, leaving her and Nick to fend for themselves.The film has been adapted from Joy Fielding's novel by Dave Schultz and directed by actor Jason Priestley. The result is a movie that holds our attention thanks to the good work the director gets of Leslie Hope, an actress who clearly knew who the woman she is portraying was. Not so effective Cameron Bancroft, as Ross, the philandering husband. Jason Priestley is seen as Nick.Although not a great film, "Don't Cry Now" holds the viewer's attention. The locations in Calgary add another layer to the story.
