    Entertaining.
    I've seen lot of movies on television with similar basic story,but those movies were made directly for television(most of them) That is why I wanted to know how I will feel about this one.

    It was mildly entertaining,if the screenplay is not original,but this time the creators maybe directly did this,cause as I sad that would be almost impossible to write an original screenplay today about a love triangle.

    Acting is not irritating,and this is very important,cause story using mostly the acting to create tension,and scenery.

    The message is very clear in my opinion,and this time this was not focused to last lines.
