It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

I'd give this one a "3*," one for each of the leads because they are at least active to look-at, and another because it's a bit fascinating in its mediocrity.I one read a Leonard Maltin review of a Patrick Swayze flick, in which he stated his acting, as usual, ranged "from 'A' to 'B'." I couldn't agree more regarding Patrick, and virtually all of the performances - particularly the two leads - in this movie fit this description/The plot, with its supposed twists, foreshadows and eerie aspects, can be given a grade of "C-," and that's an exceedingly generous grade. (And the old-lady neighbor, who gives the "heroine" forewarnings about her new abode, looks as though she might be the last remnant from one of Vincent Price's classically-corny horror flicks several decades ago.) The flick also appears to have been written and directed by personnel who, if they attended some sort of film school, had grades at this level or below.Not much to recommend - even for "Lifetime."

Wall of Secrets - This wasn't a bad movie, but I would've liked to see them expand the female character a bit more; for example have her join a law firm as well as getting involved with the "mystery" involving the people in the apartment building. Or expand the male character by showing him at work a bit more. The director has left it up to the viewer's imagination too much. The male character left Seattle for a supposedly great job in Chicago, but we never saw him in an office setting or interacting with other work colleagues, except for the scene at the cocktail party. Also, I would've liked to see more of a background of the two characters, such as starting off the movie with both of them still in Seattle preparing for the move to Chicago, so the viewer would have more of an indication where the characters were coming from & where they were headed. I believe a scene from this movie was filmed at my son's school and I would like to know where I can get a copy of the movie. I have looked in some stores, but they don't have it. Was it just a made for TV movie or was it also put out on video/DVD? If I can purchase it I would like to know where/how? If it is strictly a made for TV movie, will it ever be on TV again?

On the surface, this movie is entertaining enough. It provides some suspense and a decent plot. However, if you're the type to piece together the information and try to understand the characters' actions, you may be disappointed.The tension is enough to keep you interested but not riveted. The story line could have been better developed to avoid the questions that the deeper thinker will find. The plot doesn't get too complicated e.g. faked deaths, etc. But there are enough lies to at least keep you watching to see if you're right about who's telling the truth. And you probably are.Overall, it works just fine for tame, quiet Friday night entertainment.

This has a fairly decent plot idea and a competent cast, but the characterizations are just pure BS.The main character played by Nicole Eggert is supposed to be an up and coming criminal attorney, on her way to a junior partnership before she leaves Seattle and moves with her new hubby to Chicago. Yet, she is beaten and later choked unconscious by a supposed police officer only to wake up handcuffed to chair. Then she finds out that she has been under surveillance since moving into their new apartment. No private moment has gone unrecorded. After all this, she doesn't ask to see a warrant or any proof that these "policemen" are who they say they are? She doesn't protest about her rights having been violated??!?! Not to mention how she has been assaulted!!Just what kind of attorney is she?!?! One you would hire only if you have a death wish and lethal injection sounds like what the doctor ordered
