Has Lifetime written all over it

I saw this on the Lifetime Movie Network, where else. "Like Mother, Like Daughter" stars Michelle Stafford and William R. Moses. Stafford plays a woman whose college-age daughter goes missing. She enlists the help of one of her professors (Moses).

These films are extremely derivative, rotating a few plots. They tend to be made in Canada (as this one was) and move slowly (as this one did). Usually there are one or two stars (as this one had) and the rest of the cast are subpar (as this one was).

However, and it's a strange thing, there's something kind of Sunday afternoon comfortable about seeing familiar actors in a familiar story that somehow manages to build in some suspense (as this one did).

The ending isn't entirely satisfying for a variety of reasons I won't go into in case you see it. Stafford and Moses are attractive, good actors. You'll find things like motives and evidence sadly lacking here, but enjoy.
