Those Eyebrows, Seriously though!!


And not just the weird tilt to her over accentuated eyebrow moves, the main character, also had that constant wide-eyed, deer caught in the headlights look & it was nonstop. Finally, here was an okay, watchable Lifetime movie and the acting went from bad to worse. Surprised to see the lead had been performing since the age of 4, since she overacted and possessed one look throughout. Did the director tell her to be that over the top? It was simply awful! Swimming coach was a mix of James Franco, Ashton Kutcher & Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite) Bad Call! Worse, the actor, Tom Maden, attempted a bad boy John Mayer. Someone in Casting agreed with this terrible combination, thinking he could play the sexy, crazy bad guy but instead his character fell flat. Story line had a shot, but he did not deliver at all! Same lack of acting throughout & when, whoever the bad acting female detective came on screen, I knew Casting had truly not delivered. Story line did need some tweeks - all day, but what could have been appealing was completely ruined by bad casting & acting!

I'm not a fan of Lifetime movies, so you're right on every point about this movie. It was pretty bad. And, the pace just felt very off to me. One moment, she loves her boyfriend, and once the coach comes in, she's tired of him and wants a break, and ends up hooking up with her coach. Like, huh? O.O I mean, I understand that her boyfriend was kind of needy, but he wasn't that bad as a person. Still kind of annoying, but you know what I mean.

And, I was surprised that they used the guy to play the coach because he was in this show called Scream: The TV series on MTV. And, he was pretty bad as an actor. He should have stayed as a one-scene character, because he does alright playing a douchey jock, but when trying to be mysterious or even try to cry...it's cringe worthy to the max.

The coach is really cute though.

And that justifies him getting a job at acting? Don't be such a horn dog. This was one of the worst performances to be on TV.

Don't get hurt kid. I'm not your daddy, I'll beat you senseless.

He played in Scream last year...the character was totally different from this character but they killed him off. He is not a bad actor.

The main actress was awful, Tom Madden (who played the coach) seemed like an Oscar winner next to her. Lol. And I agree her eyebrows were super distracting.
