I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

I just watched "The Wrong Girl" the other night and I forgot how good the movie is.I watched the movie way back in 1999 when it originally aired on television.First off the story is very compelling and before them movie ends you just want to strangle the girl friend of Steve Fisher the young man who was murdered.The cast is excellent.Barbara Mandrell is not only a talented singer and instrumentalist she is a good actress.Jonathan Scarfe is effective as young Steve Fisher.Jonathan Scarfe is a terrific actor.He was good in "The Morrison Murders" and in "Our Mother's Murder" aka "Daughters".If you want a good made for television movie to watch,check this one out.I have this movie.

A Lifetime "television for women" TV movie with all you'd expect from a cheesy movie aimed at women/moms with teenage or 20-something sons. The movie does have a train-wreck aspect to it in that once you start looking at it, you may have difficulty looking away.The movie's strong characters are all female of course (remember this is television For Women), the mom (Barbara Mandrell) and the girlfriend. The girlfriend is played by a cute actress from the TV show JAG. The dad is a wooden character who may as well be a picture on the wall for the few dumb lines he's given. Much the same can be said for the older brother. Nothing terribly original, but if you want to kill some time and can TiVo through the commercials so you don't waste a full two hours, you may get hooked.

This is a pretty lame effort for a TV movie. The acting is very bad, especially from Mandrell as the Martha Stewart-type mother. She's as wooden as the her oak-clad house! Her son, Steve (Jonathan Scarfe), is even more wooden and annoying and seems to have been a cast off from Beverly Hills 90210. The clichéd story centers on Steve's relationship with Kelly, a mysterious girl with an even more enigmatic past that eventually brings tragedy to Steve's family. Anyway, it doesn't take Einstein to figure out what has happened, even if the family and police act in such a naive fashion. Best not to waste your time on this nonsense - it's not worth your time or effort.

Quite a neat little thriller, albeit carrying its fair share of clichés, about a mysterious girl who comes to stay and won't go away. Zoe Mclellan is suitably weird as the interloper and Jonathan Scarfe supplies a believable portrayal of the ingenuous, vulnerable boyfriend. There are some nice moments of tension along the way, but the denouement is rather pat and unsatisfying.
