Seersucker Movie Review - The Client List

The Client List.  Did any of you watch it?  Once I figured out what was going on, or about to go on, I curled my toes and squinched my nose.  Me no likie :(  But the concept of the movie really got me thinking.  I've never been in that situation, and I pray that I never am.  BUT...if I were...and I had children, and a home, and there seemed to be no way out.  What would I do?  The main character, Sam, seems like a grounded Christian woman who would never cross a line such as this.  But....

I'm pretty sure I don't need to give you any insight into what this movie is about.  A) the title pretty much gives it away and B) it's on Lifetime.  I will say that if you don't have anything else going on it's not a bad movie.  Quite predictable, but I really did care about these characters.  At first my heart ached for Sam, and her feelings of helplessness.  Then I began to become irritated with her, and her love of the money she was making.  In the end, I again felt sorry for her.  Perhaps I shouldn't have?  But I did. 

So I award The Client List:

ONE SEERSUCKER SUIT!  This movie may have been able to score two seersucker suits, had it not been on Lifetime.  Although I am always sucked into their movies, there is a certain predictability that always follows.  I realize this was "based" on a true story, but perhaps they could have jazzed up the story line a bit and left us all feeling shocked or surprised?
