David Jonathan B A rather lame postcard snap hiding the real abuse from sight. It also paints Franke as one of the victims of Hildebrandt's brainwashing when she was in fact a dreadful, abusive mother long before she met Hildebrandt. They fed off each others evil hysteria. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/07/25 Full Review Denise M It was a good overview of the story (as far as I know it), and the acting was very good, especially Heather Locklear as Jodi Hildebrand. I agree with them not showing the physical abuse of the children. However, I wish they had included more than one of Ruby’s diary entries , or eluded to them, since that was a big part of how she was convicted of felony child abuse. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/11/25 Full Review Iamwhoi M Absolute garbage, even for a Lifetime movie. Extremely skewed "ripped from the headlines" exploitation movie. Why Locklear said yes to this, who knows. Granted, she's had some very hard years; but this is despicable. A much better take would be FROM THE CHILDREN'S POINT OF VIEW. Disgusting. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/25 Full Review Tasha H The way they portrayed Ruby as a victim is disgusting! She is NOT a victim!! 😡 Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/03/24 Full Review Audience Member I liked it for several reasons. The acting of Heather Locklear was surprisingly good in my opinion. The portrayal of Jodi as a manipulative therapist who doesn’t even realize she is the manipulative one, was awesome. We all know the story. They didn’t show any “real abuse” to the kids..just little pieces of it enough for the audience to imagine the rest. I was truly entertained. The portrayal of the father as a loving husband and dad whose wife is loosing touch with reality and he doesn’t know what to do..interesting. I just hope he really is that loving dad. The portrayal of Ruby as a manipulated mom, questionable in my opinion. I personally think her motives were mainly egocentric and greedy. Good movie to watch. Very important to see what wrong placed faith and pride can do. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/31/24 Full Review Anna M Absolute disgrace. Profiting off the horror those kids went through. This situation and those repulsive women should've never got more attention that they already did.
