This movie was excellent!


Did anyone see it? It was new to Lifetime Channel.

Yeah I saw the movie on Lifetime too when it came on. I liked the movie a lot. The quick cuts throughout the movie really heightened the emotion and really captured the stress and hurried feelings that they had. However, I wasn't too thrilled about he ending. I just thought the writers could have ended it just a bit differently so that both characters could have had a fair shot at the end. Just kinda felt like they were completely punishing the woman in the red car just because she flipped out once. Sure, she brough it on herself, but everything that had happened that day was all because of the woman in the SUV. So, that was the only thing that bugged me, but overall it was a really exciting movie.

It was so good! I loved it. It was well made and very taut and suspenseful. I had no feelings whatsoever for Diana, but I felt so bad for Beth. Beth deserved more than that, she was having a terrible day. I hated how Diana stayed alive, and Beth didn't. But all in all, this is a good movie. It's actually, now, one of my favorites.

It's like I have ESPN or something.

Yep, this was a great movie. I was pleasantly suprised -- I didn't expect it to have such a good story/script.

I thought that this movie was great. It was one of the best TV movies I had ever seen.

Everything that happened that day was NOT because of the woman in the SUV. Beth was already late, as noted by her ex, when the SUV cut her off. It was past 8:30. If she had been on time, they wouldn't have crossed paths on the highway. And when her boss fired her, he listed reasons that had nothing to do with that day...she was a screwup, it seems. Was that SUV chick's fault, too?She deals with her handicapped child every day, she should know the amount of time it takes to get him around. Is none of this her responsiblity?

Yes it was a very good movie. I thought of how Diana and Beth were just two women, two moms, doing the best they could to care for their families and work. IMO Diana's husband was selfish at first, but after the accident was there 100% for his family. Beth's ex (it never said if they were ever married but I thought not, since Beth said she was pregnant during her senior year of high school) was selfish but in a better way, if that makes any sense, because he knew Benjy would be better off with him. It was so chilling in the restaurant when he told Beth he had consulted an attorney. Beth didn't have the financial resources to fight him, and I like to think she would have let Benjy live with his dad without a court battle. Then she could have gone back to school and hopefully made a better life for herself. Benjy was getting too big and heavy for her to physically handle.
