RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

wilsonandrewc Jenny (Tiffani Thiessen) was a sweet beautiful girl who had her whole future laid out in front of her and ever since she was little, she came to know these 2 girls, Ellen (Margaret Welsh) and Carla (Angie Rae McKinney) and to trust them and because of it, her mother, Jean (Patty Duke) trusted them too but after the truth came out about Jenny's murder, she regrets that. So, I'm asking you, please don't be fooled by them too. They murdered Jenny out of jealousy and they deserved to be punished.I hope the same thing won't happen to Jenny's niece/Greg (David Cubitt) and Sheryl's (Debra Sharkey) daughter when she becomes a teenager.
abcda14 As i only started watching the movie half way through because there was nothing better on, what struck me was how compelling the story was, as it was a a B-Movie with hammy acting, it spotlighted the issues that occur amongst teenage girls-its scary how powerful envy can be & how it can drive someone to such a horrible act- but i found it hard to believe ( as manipulative as Ellen was) how Patty Duke's character could not see through her -although i have to say that Patty Duke did a great service to the movie And Ellens character being so 2 faced and Clingy makes you detest her.Not a bad effort for a TV flick from the early nineties
Emilie the acting in the movie was kind of unbearable. i like tiffani theissen's performance as the pretty popular girl that befriends this loser that couldve been a better actress. (**spoiler**) if i was jenny's mother, i wouldve caught on to ellen so fast, it wouldnt have been funny. ellen is the crazy girl that comes up with an idea to get the friends against her and eventually lead up to her murder. one point of this that i dont really understand was the ending, when they (**SPOILER**) say what happened to ellen and the other girl that helped her. it never really mentioned what happened to the 3rd girl that was there, didnt she ever get convicted? i also had no idea that this was a true story. it's very eerie to me how someone's best friends could lead them to believe that they are truly her best friends and then turn on her and kill her? unbelievable. but the acting could use some polishing up, since i found the acting of the mother to be over the top. she didnt have me fooled for a second with that corny acting. ellen could have used some work as well, perhaps more than the others, since her act was too obvious, even for a tv movie. (D+ D)
apfortony Another made-for-TV movie inspired by true events, this movie is rerun on lifetime quite often. It's scary to contemplate a person treating another human being like the girls in this film. This movie is better than most "women in jeopardy, inspired by the story of" television flicks of the late 80s/early 90s. Patty Duke is excellent as bereaved mother and Loretta Swit (Hot Lips from M*A*S*H) lends solid support as the investigating detective who tries to keep Duke's character from jeopardizing the case. A very sad disturbing film.
