What makes it different from others?

One of my all time favorites.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

This is an average fair TV movie.The story is OK. The acting is average. None of the actors really stole the show, but I guess that's what I'm coming to expect from 'made for TV movies.' This is a bit of a whodunnit and it kind of leaves you guessing right up the end. It's low budget and you can tell. However it did keep my interest all the way through, although the whole movie is instantly forgettable. There's nothing new here. It's all been done before. But it's not terrible. It's watchable but incredibly average.The ending didn't exactly come as a huge shock and there weren't enough twists in this film to take it higher than 6 stars. I guess it's harmless enough and I've watched far worse.

I really thought from the onset that this was going to be yet ANOTHER terrible Vancouver movie but it ended up having a few good twists and turns so I would definitely recommend giving it a shot if you happen to run across it. Laura Harring is in it and she's pretty sexy and is a good actress. The main characters were all good. It's too bad though that these Canadian films always try and look like they're made in the U.S., I can understand as they're trying to appeal to the U.S. market which is 10X Canada's but it's just sort of a shame. They went out of their way to show the side of a cop car that said "Seattle Police" on it and the detective is this middle-aged black dude with that sort of American cop swagger and Bronx kind of accent, you know, a hardened American street cop, but at the end of the film, the camera pans across a grave yard and you clearly see a big maple leaf on one of the graves and it's obviously a Canadian war vets stone -- any Canadian would recognize that from a mile away so that was a bit of a blunder. Anyhow, not a bad film.

My first review and with the warning about spoilers, guess all my reviews here will warn that there might be spoilers.... Anyways, I was stunned to see this written up at mylifetime dot com -- doesn't that mean this is a Lifetime movie?? Usually the people in Lifetime movies know how to *act* or at least pretend like they're acting but NOT in this movie. This could have been a powerful movie that got its message across but the acting was SO bad all I want to do is forget this movie and everyone in it as quickly as possible.Not only was the acting awful, but the cinematography was totally lifeless and washed out, too. Did they use a cheapie video-cam to shoot this movie? If not, why did they desaturate the colors in the entire movie? It wasn't my TV because the sit-com that came on afterwards looked great.The whole movie left me shaking my head and wondering what in the world were they thinking - didn't they want people to actually *want* to watch this movie? If so, they completely failed in achieving that goal. :P

2 couples who knew each other from college days and lived across the street from each other in suburbia are traumatized when on Halloween night, one of the wives is killed. She is the one with the adorable two children. Right away we feel that something is funny because the other friend is childless and is desperate to have children.We have some real look like others in this film. The widower looks just like John Edwards and a judge at an inquest resembles Bill Clinton.Other than this, the story is too routine because we soon start to see the evidence mount up on the dead woman's husband. This guy was not such a great fellow apparently as the film goes on. We never meet his lady love who it is claimed has no interest in being a mother to his children.Naturally, the childless friend becomes very attached to the two children despite being warned not to do so by her husband.I was looking for conspiracy here. That would have made the film better. Otherwise, it's quite routine.
