The projectionist at the old revival movie house, Sylvia Potter wants so badly to be in love. Just like in the movies. But can any guy live up to her ideal leading man? Even her best friend Harry's unrequited love for her has never been reciprocated. When sexy, quiet, rich kid, Lucas Green transfers to Hampton Prep the sparks fly. Lucas and Sylvia's initial animosity quickly becomes a heated romance - despite the warnings of almost every friend in her circle. But what seems like a love story straight out of the movies hits a major plot twist when the police begin an investigation into Lucas' involvement in the Melissa Kennedy case. What really happened to Melissa Kennedy and how long can Lucas and Sylvia's relationship last in the face of a mystery that threatens to change the lives of these teenagers forever?

Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
Murli There's not a lot that can be said for Love Me. It's not the worst made for TV movie I've seen but it's far from being stellar. The only surprising grace to the movie was the story line, which was intriguing till it seemed that the writer ran out of steam three quarters of the way in and just hashed up a conclusion in three minutes. It doesn't help that the pacing is slow, loose direction and portrayed by some first class awful acting.Let's get over the good part first. The missing person angle may not be original and the start was hardly electrifying it does become more interesting. Additional details are slowly fleshed out which indicates that there's more to a simple case of a person going missing. There are some slight turns so as to keep the story going and while it works on a small part and on an overall perspective it's in the detail where things fall apart. There's problems with the so called prime suspect and the police are little more than idiots who have no clue how to conduct an investigation and are best traffic cops with a petty grudge. As the story becomes clearer it gets less interesting and the finale is clichéd and mundane that it's not even worth watching.The character development is pretty poor. I didn't feel any connection with the main "cast." Sylvia and her friends hardly hang out on screen which lends great credibility to the term BFF and each of them are self centered and rather vapid. What's worse is the bad boy, no one understand me pained look bad news boyfriend who inexplicably attracts the attention of the main lead, Sylvia. Sparks fly but the romance is listless, awkward and painful to watch. There's a side character plot involving Sylvia which was pointless.The acting is quite abysmal and I blame the director for not having the foresight to detect the lack of emotive quality, nor the decency to hire actors who can actually act. The 3 rating that I have given is for the story...at least for 75% of the plot that was interesting.I'd like to recommend this but unfortunately the sum of mistakes outweigh positivity of the storyline. Watch if there's no rerun you want to muddle through, or if you just don't care.
inmagdiaz I watched that movie because I wanted to check some Lindsey Shaw's works. I saw its rate in Series.ly and the movie had a 5! I'm Spanish and I supposed that it was because of there were no ways to watch the film in Spanish or subtitled- I hope-. When it ended I realized that I was surprised, it wasn't what I expected cause I was thinking about the 5 stars people gave it. Although I watched its VO and even not having subtitles use, I can't say it's a bad film. It seems to be slow at the beginning, and maybe confusing, but that's the thing! A surprising ending, an amazing story, love and crime joined in a enjoying film. It is short and quick since the middle of the movie to the end, and in that part surprises become the subject in each scene. It makes you feel scared, then it makes you feel happy and then angry. You change with the characters, which are very good built. Reading the title people can think that it is just a love story, but it isn't just like that. This movie tell us the story of a murder, we are sure about who the murderer is in the first 15 minutes, but then we have two or three more options, and then is when we start to live the story. Great film, good story and construction , of course great love story and a case worthy of Criminal Minds, it's a 9!
Corrin Taylor I recently watched "Love Me" and was hanging off the edge of my seat until the last second. From the suspicious side of Lucas Green to the quirks of Sylvia Potter, it kept my mind thinking and engaged me.The movie was appealing to me, as it stars Lindsey Shaw, a popular actress to teenagers. As a child I had watched her in Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide as Jennifer "Moze" Mosely, and I now watch her in Pretty Little Liars as Paige McCullers. The show features other popular actors like, Jamie Johnston who plays Peter Stone in Degrassi, as well as Jean-Luc Bilodeau who stars on the ABC Family hit show, Baby Daddy.I loved the fact that kept us in suspense until the last second. Harry was the least person I would have suspected to kill Melissa. At first, I thought that the murderer was either Lucas or Dalyn. I also am intrigued by the fact that after we found out that Harry was the killer, the action continued with Harry attempting to kill Lucas and shooting best friend, Sylvia Potter.
ersinkdotcom There's always room for another "psycho-guy goes nuts over uninterested ex-girlfriend" thriller. Audiences love these types of "who-dun-it" films. Anchor Bay Films isn't ashamed to participate in putting the next one out either. Their newest release in the genre, "Love Me," will air on the Lifetime Movie Network over and over again in a few months guaranteeing them a fat wad of cash for rights.Sylvia Potter (Lindsey Shaw) falls head over heels for quiet rich boy Lucas Green (Jamie Johnston). Things get complicated when she, her friends, and family discover he's the prime suspect in the disappearance of a 16-year old girl (Kristina Elliott) in the neighboring town of Ridgedale. Lucas swears he had nothing to do with it. Can their love survive the investigation and turmoil? More importantly, can Sylvia survive through it all?"Love Me" is exactly what it appears to be when picking it up in the video store or at Redbox. It's a PG-13 thriller which appeals to anyone who watches the prime-time shows on TeenNick, The CW, and ABC Family. It isn't completely devoid of fun. This movie gives me the same type of guilty pleasure I receive from watching "Pretty Little Liars." I should be too sophisticated to enjoy it, but I just can't help myself.The cast definitely draws its target audience to "Love Me." Lindsey Shaw from "Pretty Little Liars," "10 Things I Hate About You," and ''Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide" heads up the cast. ''Degrassi: The Next Generation's" Jamie Johnston takes on the role of the mysterious suspect Lucas Green. Jean-Luc Bilodeau of ''Baby Daddy'' and ''Kyle XY'' plays Sylvia's best friend Harry Townsend. You can't get more teen- oriented than those shows.Teenagers looking for more examples of angst and drama aimed at them will enjoy "Love Me." However, its audience isn't limited to just them. Anyone who enjoys a good low-budget thriller in the tradition of the TV movies you see on Lifetime will delight in this as well.
