everything you have heard about this movie is true.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

PROS: For starters, this movie knew exactly what it was and it didn't stray from that. There was nothing fancy, nothing creative, however, there was just enough to keep you engaged. The problem I find with horror movies today is that they try to pave their own path instead of making the path they already have more detailed. To further explain why I love this movie, is the fact that the acting was terrific. The whole idea of who the characters were supposed to be had just enough pizazz and just enough stability for you to like and then dislike some of them at the same time. The last thing that I liked was the plot. Everything that made up the movie had its own personality. I liked that KEPT WOMAN followed an idea and gradually grew from upon that idea.CONS: The thing that I would say was most disappointing was the end portion of the movie. The climax of the movie, although very intense, was also quite predictable.www.chorror.com

There have been quite a few locked in the basement abductions and kidnappings with Ariel Castro in the news. This is an obvious fictional but neat and slightly glossy version that works well in a TV movie.A young couple Courtney Ford and Andrew Walker flee the city after a break in and move to a suburb. Their neatly dressed, pleasant but slightly eccentric looking neighbor is well played by Shaun Benson. When he decides to keep her in the basement where there is a prettily set up home and another woman, the creepiness is quite well done. Things are kept plausible enough even if the basement is a little too attractive and efficiently done.Lesson: Sometimes the City is safer than the burbs.

Not only was this movie believable, it was the best Lifetime movie I'd seen in the last 5 years. I had become so bored with the way the movies have morphed into the same online girl looking for love or adventure, or compromised teachers, or killers so silly that I didn't care what they did just as long as I could turn the channel. This story line was carefully written and pieced together, with great acting, so that it kept be on the edge of my seat throughout. The foreshadowing and clues leading to the climax and ending couldn't have been better. The movie deserves a second viewing to catch every aspect of the suspenseful writing. Wonderful...can't say enough good things about this movie.

Some lifetime movies are better than others this one was not one of them.I really didn't care for Jessica or her husband. Jessica just had such a blah personality who would want to kidnap her and have to be around her all the time? Jessica was suspicious of Simon yet she invites him to dinner and goes right into his house alone? That part just didn't seem right at all. The hubby just believed she had just left without her cell phone and without contacting anyone she knew? He didn't even seem to into finding her or searching very hard you never even saw him try to contact any family??Jessica sure looked like she was enjoying sex with Simon. She just goes off that easy night after night having sex with Simon. What a waste of 2 hours of my life!
