Secrets in the Attic (2016) Reviews
Callie looks older than her mom
The teenager, Callie (Addie Cobb) look older than her mother, Rachel (Gina Holden).Then I found out why...Addie is 31 and Rachel is 40.The Director must have had blinders on because Addie does not look like a teenager, as a matter of fact, she look older than Rachel. Addie is a pretty lady and I tried to enjoy the movie, but trying to overlook Callie (Addie) as a teenager was very distracting. I hope she accept more adult roles next time because she is a good actress. But I did eventually overlooked it and enjoyed the movie. I would have rated this movie higher if there was more twist and turns in the movie, but it was enjoyable. I did enjoyed the role of the mother, so that is a plus.
Over the Hill in the Attic
While the credits roll, police discover a dead man in an old mansion. Two months later, the setting switches to Chehalis, Washington, which we're told is 200 miles from Coburg. You needn't bother to jot down that particular fact. A pair of women drive into the small town. These two are mother Gina Holden (as Rachel Davis) and her mature-looking blonde daughter Abbie Cobb (as Callie). They've inherited an elegant-looking mansion. Even nicer, for daughter Cobb, there is a handsome young man living in the attic. As it turns out, blond "Boy in the Attic" Max Lloyd-Jones (as Michael Collins) knew Cobb's grandmother and decided to stick around after the old woman died. Even luckier for Cobb, another handsome young man, Iain Belcher (as Jordan), is her new neighbor. Her cup runneth over... Cobb opts for the attic "boy" and gets into trouble as secrets unravel... This story unraveled even earlier, during casting. Producers favor casting juvenile performers who are too old for their parts. In the theater, this didn't matter much because people sit apart from the actors and there are no close-ups. For film and TV, parts need to be cast closer to age. There are exceptions, of course, but "Boy in the Attic" isn't one of them. A short adult could play a young child for some time, especially while possessing a youthful look. You give a pass to Mr. Lloyd-Jones playing a "boy" herein because people are calling young men and women "boys" and "girls" more often and he isn't that far off. However, the age discrepancy between Cobb and Holden is simply too distracting. The younger woman is way too mature for her part and the older actress looks far too young for her role. ** Boy in the Attic (8/1/2016) Paul Shapiro ~ Abbie Cobb, Max Lloyd-Jones, Gina Holden, Iain Belcher
Did the person who wrote this actually watch the movie?
You need too edit the movie review dude, no love child. Did you watch the movie or just make something up? I just watched the movie and the last part is untrue. I suggest you watch the movie before writing something on it. On another note it was boring, the girl who is 31 in real life didn't look like a teen and it was rather stupid to see her in the role, she might have tried to sound like a little girl but the lines around her mouth suggested she was much too old. I looked her up and she was badly cast as a teen. I wouldn't watch this again if you paid me. Nothing interesting. Don't waste your time. This is not a thriller, just a badly written love story. if you can call it love... I wouldn't.
30 going on 18
Abbie Cobb was 30 when the movie was filmed. Reminds me of Luke Perry, Gabrielle Carteris and Ian Zering playing teens on Beverly Hills, 90210 when they were already past 30. Peyton List (the Disney Channel starlet) would have been perfect, considering she WAS 17 when the movie was filmed. A 20-something actress, and there are many of them starring in Lifetime movies, would have been more plausible. The movie is pretty good, by the way.
Good but....
Good movie with a predictable ending. Only problem I saw was that the mother and daughter look like sisters. In real life they're only 10 years difference in age. They could have made it look a little more believable. Still worth the watch.
