Ultimate Deception (1999 TV Movie)

true story that breaks your heart but has a happy ending.

[7/10 · 5 February 1999]

The movie was a little slow at times. I think different music could have been used on occasions when Richard Grieco's character was scheming, or during the end knife scene. The scene with the little boy that 'Terry' (Yasmine Bleeth) rescues from walking near the combine should have perhaps had some music that indicated something was about to happen, just to keep us on the edge of our seats. The fact that this was a true story was a real heart wrencher. Good acting by Yasmine, her waitress friend and the woman who played her mother-in-law. The actors portraying the distraught husband, and his father, were not convincing in any of the emotional (crying) scenes. Overall, the movie kept my attention and I would rate it a 6.5 out of 10.
