It's 1983 in one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in California. Bridget Moretti (Aubrey Peeples) is an outsider from a modest family. She is desperate to befriend Kelly Locke, the coolest girl in school, and join the Bobettes. Nina Miller is not into the superficial and narrates as Bridget gets arrested for the murder of Kelly Locke.
It's a Lifetime movie. That's the start and the end of it. The cinematic look is poor. The places look cheap despite this is supposed to be the wealthiest neighborhood. The girls are twenty somethings. From the start, Nina should have the same look. I didn't connect her to the opening of the movie. She has no rooting interest. Peeples needs to go full force right from the beginning. She does have a few nice acting moments. That's probably the only good from this. Mostly, it's all very flat. The ending tries to wrap it up by blaming it on the pressure. That needs to be set up much better. All of this needs to be much better.
