    Similar to a lifetime movie

    Predictible and boring. Some tense moments but overall, it's a lame movie. I love Nia Long, she made the movie worth watching to the end. Otherwise, a waste of time

    Pretty standard

    I thought this was an okay film, pretty standard set up for films like this but little differences in the film makes it enjoyable and worth a watch.

    Don't waste your time

    Basic AF expected more. This was so predictable and had little or no substance to it. Only gave a 2 star because of the beach view (:

    Funny but just way too unrealistic

    Pros: + Funny watch & suspense was good. + Features diverse characters. + Great if you want to watch something w/o having to think too much. Cons: There were a lot of highly unrealistic parts, which eventually became frustrating. E.g. there were so many situations where it was logical to do X, but for some reason she would do Y. Perhaps they could have avoided this by adding more depth to the storyline. E.g. if they had reasons to actively be in the same space. And perhaps if he was less obvious in how he went about it.

    Obviously Unoriginal But Fun To Watch

    It was pretty obvious that this movie was another stalker movie. But all that aside, it was fun to watch Nia Long and Omar Epps working together again. Nothing unique about the plot, but it was so corny lmao. I enjoyed it. I'd watch this over a Tyler Perry movie any day.
