Lizzie (2012)
2/10
This was a pretty poor movie.

I'll give it two stars for Corbin Bernsen. He was pretty decent in the movie, in spite of the poor script. The movie starts with a lie...that Lizzy Borden fled her town after her acquittal. That's not true and there really is no reason to lie about it. It doesn't add or subtract anything from the movie.

There's plenty of goofs...from the cameraman in the reflection of the TV screen when the cable guy comes to fix it...to a pair of legs facing Jason when he is exploring the shed. The new next door neighbor shows up the first two times in Lizzie's bedroom while she's sleeping and she's perfectly fine with that. Friendly town. When the maid reveals that she's actually Brigid from 1892...Lizzie is perfectly fine with that too. The acting is awful...I think Amanda Baker did the best she could with what she had...but Holt is awful and Gary Busey is terrible.

Stay away...I wish I could have that hour and half back.
