Brilliant and touching

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This was a really strange and confusing movie. I feel pretty bad saying this because I am a fan of Tori and Dean, not so much for their acting, but I do like their reality show. The movie seemed to be everywhere with the plot. I mean, the plot was good, but whoever wrote this didn't know how to make the plot work correctly. I think better writers and maybe if Tori and Dean would have gotten into their characters a little more, it may have turned out better. I think the acting was okay, but it seemed fake. You know they are acting, but when you can actually remember throughout the film that they are just acting, it's not really good. Well, at least they both got something out of the movie, a nice relationship.

This movie is so bad I don't know where to begin! First of all anyone can act better than Tori Spelling! She should thank the heavens above for her last name! She is not even a C rated actress whose limited looks can even help her! This plot was awful, uninteresting and the movie looked like it took about a day and a half to film! It did look much like a bad comedy with no climactic scenes at all!I was laughing out loud when her and the psychic had the "silent" conversation with each other! When Dean McDermott is the best actor( by a long shot)in the movie you know its a stinker! Has this guy ever made a good flick? He is nothing more than a male gold-digger using Tori for exposure because you can NOT convince me that he finds her the least bit attractive! They both suck and I hope they never make another movie again(especially together)!

Now I know why Aaron Spelling left Tori out of his will and the reason why her mother is not speaking to her. Tori should be ashamed of her work in this "film." So many flaws, where could I possibly begin? First of all, I don't know one Asst. District Attorney (Tori's character in the movie) who would show up to court sporting cleavage and wearing bright pink and lime clothing. Let alone fake blonde extensions. Can someone give her a believable character, please?!! Secondly, Tori's acting skills in this film leave much to be desired. I kept having 90210 flashbacks when she spoke and laughed in the movie. It was scary. Even a B movie is beyond her acting skills. She should stick to guest appearances on sitcoms that require very little acting and even less camera exposure. One thing surprised me: Dean McDermott is actually pretty good in this movie. However, even Dean's decent acting skills couldn't save the horrible writing, character development, and plot. It was actually quite laughable.

Mind Over Murder is a decent effort, but I have seen better. Tori Spelling looks great and played her role well, and Carl Marotte and Dean McDermott were also very good.The movie is about a Cincinnati assistant district attorney (Spelling) who hits her head, and suddenly she can hear other peoples thoughts. Armed with this new ability, she tries to solve a murder case. She also finds an opportunity for romance with a police officer (McDermott) with whom she works on the case. There were parts of the movie I really liked (some good photography and humor), and other parts were just so-so and seemed sort of silly. It is definitely watchable, but again, I have seen better. Typical made-for-TV fare.
