A Mother Betrayed (2015 TV Movie)
3/10
Starts off strong then gets ridiculous

Warning: Spoilers
A young couple get into a car accident and the wife is pregnant. The husband dies. Years later the wife is raising her daughter and a successful architect. She meets a man who is great to her and her daughter. They get married and things seem fine but then a devious plot is hatched to take over her business and her child. Why can't things just work out for her? OVer the top conspiracies are part of the fun of Lifetime thrillers. The best friend and jealous colleague, the quack shrink, the crazy man. But it's just all a bit too much even for Lifetime standards. The ending feels cheap.

Lynn Collins looks convincing as the successful single mother. She is a better actress than this kind of thriller deserves. She has done big screen blockbusters. It's just the script doesn't hold up well at the end.
