The Wrong Valentine

First of all, why are the mother and daughter living in Versailles? The house is ridiculously over the top. Vivica is wonderful as always, the daughter bland, the mother strong. The young man is excellent and keeps it on track, even when the dialog is risible.

Dear lord above!!!

The acting from everyone was horrific, especially the villain David! Annoying face, annoying hair and generally just annoyingly bad!!!!

Worth a watch if nowt else to do though!!!!?

I sat down to watch the 2021 TV movie "The Wrong Valentine" mostly because the movie had Vivica A. Fox on the cast list. But I also opted to watch it since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen before.

And I must admit that when I saw that it was a Lifetime movie, then I didn't really harbor much of any expectation to writers Robert Dean Klein, Jeffrey Schenck and Peter Sullivan. But I still opted to watch the movie.

As the movie came to the end, I have to admit that I was actually glad I opted to watch the movie, despite of it being a Lifetime movie, because "The Wrong Valentine" was genuinely entertaining and a good movie. The storyline was well written. Sure, it was predictable and somewhat generic, but the material worked.

The acting performances in the movie were good, and they had some interesting names and talents on the cast list. The lead roles were played nicely by Mariah Robinson (playing Emily) and Evan Adams (playing David). I was especially impressed with Evan Adams and his spot on performance as a mentally unstable stalker. The movie also had a nice performance from Arie Thompson (playing Ashley, Emily's mom) and of course Vivica A. Fox (playing Ms. Connelly). A shame that Vivica A. Fox didn't have more on-screen time.

While "The Wrong Valentine" was an entertaining and very watchable movie, the contents of the storyline and script hardly had enough material to sustain more than a single viewing. However, I will say that you should definitely sit down to watch director David DeCoteau's "The Wrong Valentine" movie if you have the chance. I was genuinely entertained and positively surprised.

My rating of "The Wrong Valentine" lands on a seven out of ten stars.

Predictable movie like most Lifetime movies. The actors were alright. The only one I didn't like was the villain David. Him and the main female actor had no chemistry. I wish they would've had someone more mysterious and better looking for his role. Plus that white head on the side of his nose through the entire movie had me wanting to reach thru the screen and pop it! Yuck. Lol All in all it's still a fun watch.

Only ten minutes in and this is already one of the worst films ever. I've never seen a "professional" production with such universally bad acting. That's paired with even worse writing. The dialog is painfully stupid and hackneyed. Scenes make little sense. The history classroom looks like the basement of an Elks Hall. Other "school" scenes look nothing like a school.

And did I mention the acting is atrocious?

Is Vivica Fox supposed to be some kniwn actor because she's pretty bad. She overacts her lousy lines. The guy who plays the villian David is annoying, especially his ridiculous hair. That's it.
