User Reviews

Only recommended if infomercials are your only other choice

The movie started off with promise; a distraught mother, two suspicious deaths (one in the past), a company with a dubious environmental record and several people who appear to be hiding something.

It quickly descends into two people shedding their clothes and hiding nothing from one another several times. More of a daytime soap plot than a telemovie.

Jealousy, lust and greed take the fore as the search for the truth and justice for the grieving mother are pushed back.
