Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Cahilla Cohen This movie is sooooo incredible lousy!!! The acting is just unbelievable bad! CiCi Hedgpeth (Nicole, she is the youngest daughter, the blond one) is the worst actress I have ever been unfortunate to see in a movie. It is extremely embarrassing, and feels slightly unfair that someone as incredible bad as her can get any kind of screen time. Were the casting people on drugs when they hired her? I cannot for the life of me understand how she got the part!??! Probably someones relative or something. I know its just a lifetime movie, but still. Melissa Gilbert is the only positive thing about this movie, she acts halfway decent. Not as good as she has been before though , but with co-actors like she had - no wonder she had to struggle to try to make this flop remotely believable! As for Azure Dawn who plays the oldest sister Hayley, the slightly retarded one. She was also painful to watch, but she actually had her brief moments of something that could resemblance acting - if one tried hard enough to look for those moments, cause they are brief.All in all it is a waste of precious time. No wait, you should actually try to see this movie, its sure gonna make you laugh. And never regret anything that once made you laugh, right?

Claudio Carvalho In New Orleans, while the Lila hurricane approaches, three convicted prisoners, Simpson (Thomas Cavanagh), Juke (Marcus Lyle Brown) and Tad (Ritchie Montgomery), escape from the forced labor. In their getaway, they come to the house of Cassie Broadbeck (Melissa Gilbert), who has just left her husband and chief of the local fire department Wayne Broadbeck (Brian Wimmer), and is moving to Chicago with her two daughters, the slow Hayley (Azure Dawn) and Nicole (CiCi Hedgpeth). The tension increases when Wayne breaks in the house trying to save his family."Heart of the Storm" is not a good movie. Exploring the theme of the 1955 and 1990 "The Desperate Hours", with criminals trapped inside a house with a defenseless family, this story is unrealistic and absolutely corny. Living in Brazil, we frequently read on the news how criminals behave when they invade a family house. Imagine three guys in the middle of nowhere with three women challenging the criminals the way they did! The guys had never made any insinuation of sex or tried to rape the women in the story, and Cassie makes a totally unnecessary sexual offer to Simpson, acting like a bitch most of the time. The ham actress CiCi Hedgpeth has one of the worst performances I have ever seen in a movie. Most of the dialogs are also terrible, and it is funny that the most sympathetic characters are Juke and Hayley. The good performance of Thomas Cavanagh is the best part of this forgettable flick. My vote is four.Title (Brazil): "No Olho do Furacão" ("In the Eye of the Hurricane")

whpratt1 If you are looking for a film to keep you interested, this is the film for you. You will see lots of lightning, thunder and a very old New Orleans home and antiques. A local area is preparing for a very bad storm and they are starting to sandbag and are getting assistance from convicts. Melissa Gilbert, (Cassie Broadbeck),"Ice House",'89, was put in a position to protect her daughters from wild convicts who escaped. Cassie even told one of the convicts that she would offer herself for sexual favors if they would only leave her two daughters alone and not abuse them. However, the daughters were very willing to cook up some chili and a few tuna fish sandwiches for the convicts pleasure! Thomas Cavanaugh (Simpson),"Something More",'99, played a great role as the gang leader who was mean right down to his toes! This is a very entertaining film and worth watching!

jordanlansky I saw this at the Ft. Lauderdale festival. I found it really entertaining. On the bad side, the script seems very uneven and corny in places, the opening is like a TV movie with Melissa Gilbert baking cookies for the church or something. But once the story starts being about the escaped convicts it's really fun to watch. The other two convicts are played by Mark Brown and Ritchie Montgomery. Ritchie is the most fun in the show. Every time he opened his mouth the crowd laughs.Melissa Gilbert is better than average in this, it seems like she's really trying to get rid of her old TV actress image. But I found her costume really distracting. What woman facing 3 desperate convicts would dress so sexy?The rain and wind and hurricane stuff is really amazing for a movie with an obviously low budget. The music is really good, kind of Cajun.Would people pay $12 to see this at a theater? No. But I'll sure watch it again when it comes to TV.
