High School Lover (2017 TV Movie)
2/10
Miscast and bad ending
7 February 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Why is James Franco doing these Lifetime movies? The ironic thing is he acts pretty badly here - the other actors are much more believable. In fact he would have been better cast as the predatory sleazeball than Franoics Arnaud who looks more clean cut.

A teenaged girl gets swept off her feet by an older movie star who begins to obssess about her. Considering he has plenty of other options it doesn't really explain why he needs her so badly. The fater of the girl played by Franco makes a futile attempt to stop the romance.

The ending is one of the weakest in Lifetime history and that's saying a lot. How stupid are the wife and daughter for calling the father before the police? How come the police were slower than Franco in getting to the house? It's just curiosity that made me watch this movie and it was a waste of time.
