Lack of good storyline.

A Brilliant Conflict

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Unstable is a TV thriller moving starring Manny Dearest's Ashley Scott and tells the story of a divorced woman who is living in a new neighbood as she is set to divorce her husband. She meets a man named Nick Reese who is the perfect man and she starts to have an interest in him and decides to let him stay in with her. But is Nick all he says he is. Overall it wasn't a bad film and I could tell by a mile away what was going to happen.

Every scene was boring, predictable and poorly written. I maybe would have enjoyed the storyline if the acting wasn't so over the top and full of clichés. I would not recommend this to anyone, even if there is nothing else on, it was very basic, a teenager could have written it.The classic con men who tricks the leading lady into loving her, puts a camera, blah blah, she finds it, realizes he is bad, he steals the son, and in the end the mum saves the sun. To sum it up, basic, boring and very very bad acting. The music was over-emphasized and rarely matched to content on screen. The only good actor was the little boy. So if your looking for a movie to watch, don't choose this one. I just wasted 2 hours of my life -__-

This movie kept me on my feet, I really didn't guess what was going on. I've seen a lot of Ivan's movies and he is always so good, as he is here. Obviously the leading lady always falls for the con just as the con knows she will. That's no different from any other movie though. There are some predictable moments in the movie, you see it coming a mile away. The movie was so good that I really didn't mind overlooking the clichéd scenes. The acting from some of the characters could use a little help, but with all that said this is still an enjoyable suspense filled movie that I couldn't wait to see what would happen next. A good Saturday night thriller.

Is it just something about Lifetime movies that the parents usually are well-off and have big houses? Ahem, anyhow, it's something about Ashley Scott that just makes you like and respect her as an actress and a woman. The movie has recently divorced mother, Christine (Ashley), who is now on shaky terms with her ex-husband, Jason (Ivan). Christine meets Nick Reese (George Newbern) at a park like event and they seem to connect, having similar love lives, as both their exes seemingly cheated on them. Christine soon invites him to live in her guest house, something that angers both her ex husband and one of her male partners (Jay Pickett) at work. Right here is where you see that there is a would-be unnecessary love triangle. It is revealed that Nick is a conman who is hired and was represented by Christine's ex husband the attorney. Jason is hoping to prove Christine an unfit guardian and have full custody turned over to himself. Nick starts to thinking, hey, this may not be right and things take a turn for the worst, leading Nick to run over Eric (which later gives away his persona), take Christine's son hostage, shoot his ex- prison mate and murder Jason. (in no chronological order, of course). I think Lifetime should use the term 'Crime Drama' loosely, as most of the thinking is done for you and they give you a glimpse into Nick's true doings too soon, in my opinion. Also, you would think these people would learn how to hold onto a gun by now.
