CGiii Comment

Dismal.

By being so contrived, it comes over as an over-wrought melodrama with too many strands flapping uncontrollably around in the wind - without the hope of ever being tethered.

This is a masterclass on how a film falls apart in front of your eyes - way too big for its director and too complicated for its writers - stick to TV, the expectations are comfortably lower for your limited talents.

The(ir) Blurb...

When someone is murdered on New Year's Eve, the prime suspect is Valerie Maas, a church-going home-maker whose life unravels when she discovers that her husband of many years has been leading a double life. Her strength of character and faith keep her going as the revelation of her husband's betrayal threatens to destroy all that they have known.
