This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

This is so unbelievable you want to change channels. The barbie doll villain is just awful in this. I wonder where she gets the money for all the makeup she wears? Also Mackenzie Phillips is wasted in this silly movie. I like Phillips, but most of the other performers were terrible. Jenna Dewan Tatum tries but she's just not strong enough to carry a leading role. I found her a bit too amateurish in her acting. Perhaps in another vehicle where she doesn't have to act but just look pretty. I did not feel compassion for any of the characters. Just sorry Mackenzie wasting her talents in this trash.

I CANNOT be anymore clear about that. None of the evidence that she was convicted on makes any sense whatsoever. The prosecutor who put her behind bars and used to refer to her as "a female Charles Manson" even now admits he made a mistake. He is now helping to get her out. Besides the great acting, this movie is so cheesy it stinks to the bowels of bloody hell. It is also has a complete choppy sense of direction, is inaccurate, cheap production, bad script. Also, the arrest takes place within just ten minutes from the beginning of the movie. They could have waited a little longer. I only give this movie three out of yen stars because the only thing good about it is the acting.

Beautiful Purdue University student Jenna Dewan-Tatum (as Sarah Jo Pender) is outraged when boyfriend Greyston Holt (as Rick) invests her tuition money in a drug deal. The most sober member of a frothy foursome, Ms. Dewan-Tatum orders Mr. Holt to get rid of their roommates – then, she goes for a walk. When Dewan-Tatum returns, the other couple has been shot. Dewan-Tatum is found guilty of double murder and sentenced to 110 years in prison. This is how "She Made Them Do It" begins, but how it ends is unclear. During the running time, we are made to think the opening events did not happen as screened. Although we are informed this is "based on a true story," the truth appears to have escaped...Dewan-Tatum's character is described as a "female Charles Manson." Yet, she either does or doesn't commit the crime according to the moment you happen to be watching. Sexy and attractive for writer Gary Tieche and director Grant Harvey, Dewan-Tatum wastes no time in dropping her panties for the camera. She also hints at including both genders in bed, engaging the viewer. It's nice to see clean and sober Mackenzie Phillips (as Jamie Long) among her prison girlfriends. Given the use of "America's Most Wanted" and the fact that she was convicted, the way filmmakers seem to glamorize the character may be considered unfortunate – but that TV program and this film are selling crime as entertainment, after all.**** She Made Them Do It (2/28/13) Grant Harvey ~ Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Steve Bacic, Andrew Airlie, Mackenzie Phillips

Not a particular intriguing movie. It may have been based on a true series of events, but I found the acting to be very much typical of what you would find in most made for TV movies. Specifically very canned performances and actors following a script to get through a tight timeline to complete the picture with little time to do retakes to get the scene right. Jenna Dewan-Tatum (don't you just hate the number of actresses who attempt to separate themselves from other actresses by combining both parents surnames?) who is a lot more attractive than the real Sarah Jo Pender, portrays the woman who partnered with her boyfriend to murder their two roommates. Sarah ends up going in to Rockville Prison Indiana where she begins a crusade to get out at all costs.Sarah does not think twice about manipulating anyone, and everyone who she thinks can help her escape prison, since the courts are not willing to overturn her original conviction. Sarah will sleep with women or men to get them to help her escape from prison. Eventually she sleeps with one of the guards and wins his confidence to help her escape. She then turns to prostitution to secure a safe place to stay while she is on the run from the law. The movies portrayal of Sarah is a bit ridiculous in that she is portrayed as a genius who plays a para-legal and assists a fellow convict to keep custody of her three daughters away from her Aunt and Uncle.Eventually Sarah Jo Pender is featured on John Walsh's America's Most Wanted and her John realizes who she really is but he chooses not to turn her in to the law. Instead he agrees to get her a job and an apartment and he agrees to pay her cash working in the factory that he owns. Again Sarah is portrayed as a genius accountant who is shown saving her new lover's business from an embezzler accountant. Go figure? She ends up being a drug dealer, con artist, manipulator and killer with a penchant for handling child custody battles and multi million dollar businesses from swindling accountants.Marshall Sean Holland who is hunting her down catches up with her last John whose name is Bob, and played by actor Andrew Airlie. Marshall Sean Holland puts the screws to businessmen Bob and lets him know that harboring a murderer and escaped convict could put him in jail. The next thing you see is Sarah being arrested and back behind bars where she is currently in isolation and her earliest release date is when she turns 75 years old.Is she a victim of circumstances or a master manipulator? I think the latter. I give this made for TV movie a 4 out of 10. I don't think you will miss much if you pass on this one.
