i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.
Boring
n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
View MoreI was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
View MoreSo many haters on the music/soundtrack! Yes the music is not matched to the time period but it's brilliant! It fits so well! The soundtrack is one of the best things about this film! I also love Christina Ricci, she does an amazing job. Frankly I think Lizzie Borden did commit the murders but due to the times and lack of forensic evidence got away with it.
View MoreI think this film is well cast and, for the most part, pretty well executed. Without the absurd and ridiculous choice of music for its soundtrack, it could have been much better. Such hard rock and heavy metal music relates in no way whatever to the story or the time period. In fact, I opted to review this film simply because of how bad the soundtrack is. There are several things I appreciate about this film, particularly that it portrays the people and events accurately according to case files and history.
View MoreThis has all the hallmarks of a made for Lifetime movie, with pauses where the commercials should have gone, tame TV quality gore scenes, and no nudity. And when I looked it up, yes, it was Lifetime.Lifetime, where actress' careers go to die.Now, the only reason why I point this out is because the way that they marketed this was to make it look like it was going to be a slasher movie. But really, it's about as tame as a movie about ax murders could possibly get. Oh, yeah, and that soundtrack! What were they thinking?Anyway, this movie recounts the murder, and Ricci comes off as kind of psychotic in the role. They also imply a incestuous relationship between Lizzie and her father.Beyond that, the kind of tripe you expect out of a Redbox.
View MoreI just finished watching this movie and i thought it was a really great production for lifetime TV movie. I actually think it could've been released in theatre's.The acting was well done. This movie was also very good at maintaining suspense.the only criticism was some of the music they chose which was not suited for the era this movie was set in.I read some other posts on here that agree about the music but i don't think bad music should create so much negativity on what looked like a good production overall.Having said that...the reasons why my views on this movie might be more positive than others is becausei watch a lot of lifetime movies and felt as though this film was much better than the typical lifetime TV movie.i never watched the original movie made in the 1975 with Elizabeth Montgomeryi haven't followed the original case so i didn't have any ideas on what or how this movie should be like. so if you are like me... and come into the movie without any idea about this case or the history of it. you might enjoy it.
