Critics Consensus

Energetic enough to be diverting but too mediocre to be memorable, Dangerous Lies feigns erotic thrills without ever really working up a sweat.

Karen Han

The pleasure of Dangerous Lies isn't finding out whodunit, but simply yelling, "What?" at your screen as increasingly unbelievable twists play out.

A lot of it is very heavy on the melodrama, but worst of all here is that when you finally do get the answer in the end, it lands with a huge thud.

Rated: 2.5/5

It might be kind of tedious, kind of sloppy, and mostly silly, but you could never accuse Dangerous Lies of false advertising.

Rated: 2.5/4

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

So while Dangerous Lies doesn’t really fail at doing much of what it tries to do, it never really succeeds either. It delivers a story, with some solid twists, and some decent performances that never truly grows beyond the mediocre.

Rated: 5/10

Keith & the Movies

It all makes for a movie that is just engaging enough to keep you watching. It still can’t avoid all of the pitfalls that come with movies like this, but it does give a good effort.

Rated: 2.5/5

The actors in Dangerous Lies don't do a particularly outstanding job in their roles, but no one is outright horrible either. It's the kind of made-for-TV movie that someone can watch to pass the time, but it won't leave much of a lasting impression.

Such a ridiculous story. The start is not bad but it gets progressively worse

This has the worst script with the most obvious mystery reveal ever. You can guess all the twists within the first 30 minutes. The acting is really flat and embarrassing too. They also hilariously try to pass off Vancouver, Canada as Chicago, Illinois.

I literally couldn't SEE anyone. Bad lighting through all the important parts. Couldn't even see the dead body which was lowkey important. What the hell? Trying so hard to be edgy.

I literally watched this between browsing my email and Twitter feed, so yes it passed the time. If you want to get frustrated at characters for poor choices, this is the flick for you! Only reason to watch is Camille Mendes.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Ming

A bone-chilling horror film that will leave you with goosebumps, nightmares, and a lingering sense of dread. With its tense atmosphere, terrifying jump scares, and haunting soundtrack, this movie is not for the faint of heart.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
