Saiya M I thought this movie would be interesting like in the end turns out it was a dream or something. Or maybe i thought the movie would have logic to it like the mother got sent to a psych ward and eventually got better. Neither of those endings happened. Instead the mother hallucinated a second daughter for the entire movie and even made up a fake death for the invisible child. She never got better, her problems were never fixed and the family went along with her hallucinations. It made no sense why she was hallucinating another child when she had two. As if they werent good enough and needed another child to give her happiness. Which is sad and when cps was called, the dad and nanny should’ve taken those children away from the mom who was most likely schizophrenic or had a tumor. The kids deserved a better life and the father took it away from them by forcing them to go along with the mom’s hallucinations. I would not recommend this movie unless you want to waste an hour and 30 minutes of your day. The only reason why i continued to watch is because i genuinely thought the movie would have an ending that wrapped it all together but it didnt. Dont watch this Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/18/24 Full Review Audience Member The concept was interesting but the story was flat and ended abruptly. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/07/24 Full Review Audience Member Just terrible what rubbish! This movie made it to 23 on the Top 50 Ridiculous Movies Ever! Don't bother old crap! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Typical Lifetime-style movie only without the wrongly abused woman and the sadisticly evil male. This movie is actually unconsciencely hilarious which is why I rate it as high as I did. Otherwise, I'd rate it even less. The ending isn't too realistic in that the whole issue the movie is based around was too easily rectified. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Really sad story. Mae Whitman is such a brilliant actress, and she is a joy to watch. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Word of advice movie: If the choice is between the social worker doing her job and the crazy family trying to perpetuate an insanity, I am going to sympathize with the social worker. Sorry, but the mother needs help, the father and nanny need to locked up and the kids taken away in this situation. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
