The Eleventh Victim (2012) Reviews
Sadly Devoid of Substance
Most of the 'facts' of this movie strained credulity to its limits. From the bad guy, 3 weeks from his execution, being summarily released pending a new trial to his escape, completely unimpeded, from the hospital at the end. That may have been the true nail in the coffin. Having watched a sub- par movie throughout only to be disappointed as the 'bad guy gets away'. I gave the movie a 3 instead of 1 because I was somehow able to gut through the entire thing just waiting for something better. Alas, that was not to be and was like salt in the wound to have it end as it did. I'm afraid I agree with the reviewer who suggested that this movie would be best suited to those with below-average IQs.
Perfectly dreadful
I don't know where to begin with how bad this film was. To start with, the first thing that should have occurred to her was that the man she had put away, who was supposedly on death row & had tried to kill her in the past - had somehow got out of jail. She never mentioned this fact to the police. The most glaring mistake - not notifying her per duty to warn - was explained at the end of the film when * spoiler alert* the clients attorney turned out to be his crime partner. That one twist in the plot was interesting, and not predictable. Which is why the film got 2 stars, although I'm not sure if zero stars is possible to assign. Second spoiler - Cruz escaping from the hospital after killing the doctor. I work in a hospital that serves the prison population. You get a prisoner patient in, even one who is in county jail for a misdemeanor - he has an armed guard at his bedside 24/7. As well as being in some sort of shackles or restraints. Many wizened old prisoners who look like they could not open their milk carton unassisted have 2 guards sitting at the bedside at all times. So ANY prisoner approaching badass would be guarded by at least 2 armed prison guards and be in restraints. The guards are present to prevent an escape and also to protect the staff (or to prevent an attack on the prisoner from angry family, etc). Those that have just been arrested & brought to the hospital prior to charging due to health concerns are guarded by police officers. Nancy Grace seems to be someone who has enough experience around criminals & crime scenes to have done better with the credibility. And as for the present profession of the ex-prosecutor - that was not credible to me either. What therapist will let their client off when they offer a half hearted "I'll try" by doing a head tilt and responding "That's all you can do!" with a smile? As someone who has sat through a few therapy sessions I can tell you that's not normal. "Don't try, just do it" now that's normal. I did not take that as poor acting, just a limitation of the script. Where the acting from the pretty blond ex prosecutor fell short - there is no way I could see her as a tough prosecutor and someone who could fight a murder attempt from a serial killer. And what nimrod ties a victim up while leaving their hands free so they can get their jewels squeezed? She never came across as someone who could keep control of a classroom of middle school rowdies, let alone prosecute a case
Worse than the worst Lifetime stinker movie!!
Thinking about it, I don't know why I gave this three stars - it barely deserved one! It was truly the worst of the worst Lifetime or LMN movies ever made. That's saying a lot, because a whole lot of them are pretty bad. I watched for about 50 minutes and then decided this was only going downhill, with no hope of redemption, so I gave up on it. I didn't watch 90210, so I am not familiar with Jennie Garth, but if this performance is indicative of the quality of her acting she definitely needs to find a job that's a better match to her skills. Acting certainly isn't one of them! I also don't watch Nancy Grace much, but if this story is indicative of her writing skill, and it appears to be, well...Nancy, give up writing, right now cause it's absolutely not working for you! So much of this was so pathetic and nonsensical. One of the more ridiculous things was when Jennie asked the the detective about his leads. He said they had been considering several different leads. She then became overly defensive and accused him of accusing her of being the murderer (which he very certainly had not)! Of course, she shamelessly overacted. This one was so much worse than the customary Lifetime stinker - it was so amazingly bad that I will never again watch any Lifetime movie. In my experience, out of 10 movies run on Lifetime and/or Lifetime Movie Network, 2 may be halfway decent, 4 may be pretty bad, 2 may be really, really bad and 2, like this one, are truly an amazing and disrespectful insult to viewers! I suggest they start showing an on-screen, prior to showing movies: "Warning! This is unsuitable for anyone with an I.Q. exceeding 55." Ba-bye Lifetime and Lifetime Movie Network!
Horribly Bad - I give specific examples, but I don't tell the movie
This movie was horribly bad. Story line was predictable and the sketchy police work was a major disappointment. I like Nancy, but I would suspect that the court proceedings and the way the police conducted their investigations would mirror real life police work more. Prime Example: Hailey was arrested, because a pen was found at the crime scene. Especially when it was clear that her office had been broken into and vandalized. Hailey also waited to a later time to share with the detective that the pen was lost. Who does that? Especially when you are being falsely accused of murder. That is information you would want to be told right away. Next example - Hailey tells her receptionist to run and go to the police, why not call the police and have them come to you. Finally, (although I have about 5+ more, I will let you the viewers decide on your own). Criminals are given medical attention in specific places WITH police detail because they are dangerous. Cruz was not supervised and was able to kill and escape again. Sketchy.. Especially with him being a serial killer and was up for death row.
11th Victim-Enough is Enough, Already ***
I would have rated the film an extra 1/2* had it ended when the sadistic killer got what was coming to him. Interesting story where a District Attorney has to leave her job after nearly being choked in court by the guy she was able to convince a jury had killed seven women. Our D.A. goes to N.Y. to become a therapist. Amazing all the degrees she has. Based on a DNA irregularity, our killer is released and heads to N.Y. to commit more mayhem and get even with the prosecutor. As her patients become victims, the police suspect her and she is eventually arrested. It's hard to fathom that a bulletin wasn't put out when our killer left Atlanta after being released, but told to stay in waiting for a new trial. After all is said and done, we learn of another agenda that our eager defense attorney had. Just when you finally think that matters have been resolved, our killer, who was wounded, escapes from the hospital and is on the loose again. The plot is overdrawn.
