Review of Caroline?

Caroline? (1990 TV Movie)
1/10
Ridiculous
13 October 2017
This is a very dubious movie with many holes in the plot, and it is necessary, throughout, to "suspend your disbelief". No one looks, sounds and acts enough like another person to bamboozle an entire town, filled with friends and relatives. It's just ridiculous. I think this movie is a real waste of two hours.

The way the main character is directed, it is obvious from the start that she is not Caroline. The private investigator was not able to find anything on her? Preposterous.

What, exactly, does the handicapped girl have to do with this identity crisis and deception that the movie is about? It is like watching two movies at once, squashed together. It is so unbelievable, you almost expect Heidi at some point to say, "I am not Heidi! I have been pretending all these years!" and for the woman impersonating Caroline to declare, "I am handicapped! I am not normal!"

What a stupid, ill-conceived movie this is. Nothing like it could ever happen in real life. It is just a 2 hour soap opera. The imposter gets her hands on the inheritance and then has a change of heart (twice) to help Heidi, echoing the lie she told about moving to India? All the while, lying straight-faced to everyone involved, while crying about having hurt them?! Give me a break. Oh, and the party thrown for "Caroline" should have been proof to everyone that something was wrong. Instead, everybody was snookered. She even stated that she "loves" Winston. Yes. of course. That's why she lied to everyone, Heidi included. (Rolls eyes).
