Review of Best Friend's Betrayal

This is a good script. The casting job, on the other hand, wasn't so good. The actress for the main role (Katie) didn't seem to fit the part well. In fact, I think she would have played the villain more effectively. The woman playing the villain (Katie) doesn't act unhinged, not even when no one else is looking. And the actor playing Nick seems shifty. Writing Quality: Pretty decent for the most part. I was a bit confused by Nick at times; he seemed suspicious. At one point, he addresses Jess a little too cheerfully about an awful event and then later secretly talks to Katie as though they are conspiring. I think it was both the writer's fault and the actors' fault that Katie didn't seem obsessive with her best friend like she was supposed to. I will say that near the end there is a twist that is totally unexpected, a twist that is very well done. Scare factor: The death scenes, the impending danger when Katie and Nick are together (somebody snooping on them) is a bit edgy. Content (sex, language & violence): No sex, mild language (if at all). Violence is moderate with the death scenes. Values: The search for truth and desire for loyalty. So, an engaging plot that would have benefited from more suitable actors.
