And I'm trying to find if it's playing again or somewhere else as I wasn't
recording and lost the last half when I put it on pause. I knew there was going to be a twist & I figured it out right before it was revealed which make it all the more frustrating as I'm dying to know what happened. It's LIFETIME so i'm sure good will prevail but I want to know what that evil Lexi has up her sleeve & how she & her partner in crime go down because she's a psychopath & I hope it's painful because she causes so much misery for the daughter & wife of Jordan. I wish there was a Q & A on IMDb unless I don't know how to access it. I usually don't write reviews too because I can never find them.

A Walk on the Wild Side
lavatch4 June 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Ms. Veronica Ballard-Glen and her husband Jordan make the decision to take a walk on the wild side. In a daring change of pace in their conservative lives, they choose to participate one evening in a ménage-à-trois. Any viewer will recognize instantly that there are going to unexpected and fateful consequences from that experience.
The film was successful in developing the character of Veronica, who is about to succeed her father in the ownership and management of a cereal company. The family values of the Ballard brand made it difficult for Veronica to respond to blackmail threats after her experience in the boudoir with her husband Jordan and the appropriately named Lexi Wolf.
The actress playing Veronica unfolded a character with some backbone. But it was not entirely convincing that she would cave in to Lexi's demands, first for $50,000 and, later, would attempt to pawn her beloved grandmother's jewelry to pay the next demand of $150,000. It was also surprising that Veronica failed to recognize Lexi from her photo in the high school yearbook.
Despite some of the lapses in action, exposition, and character, there was good dramatic tension and an intriguing twist that involved Veronica's husband Jordan. The performances were first-rate, including the shape-shifting persona of Lexi Wolf/Sarah Birch.
Veronica's walk on the wild side definitely resulted in a lesson to remember even if it was a night to forget.

Don't think so

When your spouse suggests a ménage a trios, that's a huge sign of a troubled marriage. When that third party starts blackmailing you, not the husband, just you, and the husband does nothing to help, that's a huge sign that he's conspiring with the blackmailer. For Veronica to be so business savvy, she certainly was naive about people. She could've stopped this in its tracks by just confessing to her father. I doubt her father would've fallen apart hearing his daughter had a threesome. If she was fired, she could've found another job. I just didn't get why she allowed Lexi to have all the power. The only thrill about this movie was waiting to see if/how Lexi died.
