Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Helllins It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

przgzr Jimmy Smits, Rhea Pearlman, and Judith Light, why not? It seemed to be so promising.It's hard to describe my disappointment.When you know who the killer is, why is he doing it, what is he planning to do next... what's the point in watching it? Bad guy won't become good, good guys will stay good, no secret will appear throughout a movie, and all you can hope for is another cliché as soon as the former one's over.I'll write some S P O I L E R S - if there can be any spoilers about the movie where 80 percent is revealed from the start and the rest can be guessed by each person who isn't breastfed anymore..There's not a single scene of any importance to the story that you don't see it coming in advance. A woman is pregnant... she has to deliver a baby when she is in lonely house in the county (where else?), during a storm (storms are better labour inducers than any medications). A doctor that no one knows is expected to come; knock-knock, do I have to tell you who enters? There is a boy (as almost always is) who saw a murder (as they always do) and when he recognizes the murderer (as they unmistakably do) no one believes him (why do they try at all? Oh, they are still young and haven't seen all those movies...). The killer knows where the movie heroes live, but whenever he visits them they are not at home (certainly, otherwise we would lose them too early) - yet, to satisfy his (and authors) killing impulse, there is always someone available to be killed instead. And the good young detective, the only one who believes our hero, won't only give her hand to save her, but will ask for her hand before closing credits (after knowing her for about a week).And I must admit there is something good to say about the movie. It has some humour, enough to prevent giving up. If the author were realistic regarding to quality of the story, they should have multiplied the jokes and we could forgive the rest. With (very much) effort it could look like Mel Broks comedies. But, as this funny quotes don't come regularly and bounce far above the level of the movie, I got a feeling that maybe the actors added them to the script during shooting. Even if so, we must thank the authors for not cutting them away from the final version.The best one: after helping her during delivery Smits tells Light: "Next time will have sex first, and then the baby."If you think that's enough to watch the whole movie... it's your choice, and I won't feel responsible, you have been warned.

janeeyrez I've come to the conclusion that movies either grab you or they don't and oftentimes it's because of experiences you've had in your own life. I was an unwed mother at one point in my life, so I have great affection for the idea of some wonderful man coming along to love you even though you're big as a house. This movie used to air on Lifetime all the time... and then it vanished. I waited for years for it to show up somewhere so I could tape it, but it just never did. So this year when I thought about it, I located it on Half.com and bought it for about $7, S&H included. I watched it with a friend, we both enjoyed it. What more can you ask of a movie? Yes, I know that it won't grab most viewers, but since it keys into one of my personal unfulfilled longings, works for me!

there4iam Decent suspenseful story, although it has been done before, that was ruined when the action stopped. Most of the person to person dialogue had absolutely nothing to do with the story and was pure filler. Jimmy Smits looked almost embarrassed to be there. Would only recommend during a blizzard when nothing else is on.

Shekhar Singhal This is a good movie in the sense that it has a pace that often keeps the viewer fascinated. It has its own moments and the director has been able to deliver a pulse pounding tale.
