Title should have been 'Framed by the Scumbag"
mja5822 October 2021
I saw this for the first time tonight on the LMN Network, and I thought it was an O. K. time waster.

As per usual, this was held in the "Lifetime Universe" were all sorts of weird situations happen, such as:

1. The wife's character being so naive as to do her husband's dirty work by paying the blackmailers.

2. The wife being accused of murder based on FLIMSY evidence. (Lifetime should consult with the HLN Network for some credibility).

3. The husband being so reprehensible - definitely a SCUMBAG!!

Note: There were several scenes depicting violence against women (including what appeared to be rapes), which I found disturbing,

6/10.

Lifetime Channel...
VeganVag1 August 2021
Why insult your viewers with such ridiculously implausible movies where the women are always made to be incredibly stupid?! Not even an animated film would be this bad when it comes to reality.

Oh, dang it! My channel just changed before it finished? Maybe the wife, who is now only hiding under a cap, could figure it out in the manner she became a detective out of the blue, after thinking it was smart to pay off an unknown extortionist?? Lol.

Btw, what's with Lifetime Channel always hiring unattractive POC to play detectives, especially the women? Both actors were obviously hired based on their appearance, which I totally find, in and of itself, very suspicious in a demeaning type of way.

It left me completely bamboozled!
firebolt-0551722 October 2021
I've seen my fair share of silly Lifetime movies, so I didn't hesitate to lump this movie along with some of the silliest that I've ever seen. The movie had me intrigued in the beginning because I really wanted to see exactly how the scenario would be resolved. However, I was left feeling like an idiot for sticking around to finish it. It's not even a "so bad it's good" kind of Lifetime movie and those are some of my favorites! Long story short, both the protagonist and her sister make some the most dumbfounded decisions I've ever seen in a Lifetime flick. Definitely not worth a rewatch.

So much idiocy
CranberriAppl28 November 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I like the actors and that's the only reason I didn't quit after the first twenty minutes. There isn't enough love in the world for our protag to have been so stupid in the beginning. Dial M for Murder is a much better plot outline for a husband framing a trusting wife. It's not very complicated but some of the elements, such as the wife trusting her husband to be on her side, are present. However, it's about the execution. Dropping off blackmail money just because he asked and you just found out he was being blackmailed? Giving him the bloody clothes? I mean, sure, I don't blame her for trusting her husband, but a botched "blackmail" drop off didn't raise her cockles? Not only that, but they (to me) went overboard turning him into such a deranged creep while at no point giving her any sign that he was slimy, cheating on her, and violent.

The beginning stupidity set the tone for this movie, and personally once was enough.

Better than most LMN movies.
PeteB12328 October 2021
I'll give any Lifetime movie 7 stars that doesn't start with a bunch of young blondes drinking wine and small-talking about absolutely nothing for fifteen minutes.

It also had the cleanest, clearest sound and dialogue I've heard in a show in a long time.

Of course it's still about people making unbelievably bad life or death decisions.

A Very Poor Plot Eclipsed only by Weaker Acting
gasket3608 September 2021
If this movie weren't so bad it might be laughable - but it's not even worth laughing at the laughable. I started watching it on the strength of Dan Payne as one of the cast. When wading through the plot became tedious I used mute and fast forward but even that wore thin. Give me some real plots to gnaw on- like Agatha Christie or Murder She Wrote. There's a good reason why her work has stood the test of time. Although a sometimes fan of Dan Payne, I just couldn't get through this production. A handsomely rugged presence that commands attention, if for no other reason than his stature, isn't enough to hold my attention in a very poor and unrewarding movie.

Yuck
glennschmidt-6305219 July 2023
I actually felt so embarrassed for the actors. One of the 2 worst movies I've ever seen. I don't understand why actors get hired that are that pathetic with their trade. If these are the actors that they are hiring these days maybe I should get a job as an actor, and I have no clue what I'm doing. Please acting Guild, reach out and hire me. I have no talent and I will do the job for half the money or less, you tell me. If you guys continue to come up with movies like this in the future. I think we're in trouble, please fix the problem. In the meantime, I'll go back to better movie channels, thanks.

Disturbing but good plot!
Chartreuse119 July 2021
Rick is a successful writer married to June who is a budding writer but someone is blackmailing him and wants $50K in exchange for silence but why? Rick asks June to make the dropoff and she ends up finding the blackmailers already dead with herself as the prime suspect since Rick ends up framing her and she is charged with the deaths. But June has a plan to clear her name and discovers Rick has another life. Strong Canadian leads head up this cast. Highly recommended!

Hot Garbage
ca-brown22 July 2023
I can deal with a subpar, B-grade-at-best movie, particularly just to have on in the background while I do some work. This, however, had some of the weakest writing and plot machinations I've ever seen. I don't think the acting was any worse than you'd expect, but damn, the writing was pathetic. Just a single example among dozens, the cops think "she's getting better at this" and "she must have spotted us" when they rolled up on her hideout with sirens......yeah, I can't imagine how you got spotted.....it's like this the entire movie, as even the smallest details that are used to live the plot forward seem unrealistic.
