From the premise of the film witched I picked up in the first five or so minutes of watching, I was expecting more of a sappy melodrama with some serious over the top acting, which I did get plenty of, but I actually though the story was complex enough to hold my interest.I thought the main character, David was an awesome villain. From the moment he hits the screen you can tell this guy is selfish and petty and only cares for himself. He's not an ass hole who treats women like dirt, he's a possessive man who wants to own the woman he is with. The highlight of the movie was seeing how far this guy would go to own his woman and the means he goes through when he cuts a woman out of his life. We get to see his entire development when he's in a relationship, which was fun to watch.Tempestt Bledsoe was not a highlight, however. I felt that her over acting was too over the top from everybody else's over acting. It was really bad to watch.Overall this was a great soap opera to watch unveil. If you watch Bounce TV late at night like I do, I say don't turn the channel when it's on and take a look.

I've seen bad movies before but this takes the cake! This movie is awful! Are the directors, writers, producers first-timers? Poor script, poor acting, poor directing; this is unreal! Nothing is believable. What many buys a woman he barely knows diamonds? I've seen many of these actors in other shows and this movie does them and injustice. I wonder if their acting careers became stagnant after this movie? Was this movie not read many times before the actors were selected? Were the scenes not viewed many times before this movie was edited? What was the budget of this movie; a few hundred thousand? Who did the make-up; yuck! Horrible, horrifying, terrible, this is beyond an epic fail!

N-Secure is billed on Amazon as some sort of psychological character study of how a man can go from the pinnacle of success into the bowels of hell, simply because he isn't secure with himself and the people around him.Well, that's not quite accurate...it's really more about an obsessive controlling psychopath and his attempt to enslave virtually everyone around him into a "serve me or die" pact. What starts as an intriguing character study of an obviously emotionally bruised martinet devolves into an African American take on "the female imprisoned" ala Jennifer Lopez's "Enough," only that film was played much broader and almost for sheer action-adventure adrenaline. N-Secure never achieves that kind of driving, operatic rhythm, and by the end, you could swear you're watching a Lifetime movie.This film had four screenwriters. That's about two too many in most cases, and it definitely shows here. The film is littered with stray, odd scenes that are intriguing in that they illuminate bits of David's shattered psyche, but then doesn't do anything with them. For instance, early on we meet a Marine buddy of David's who appears to only be in the movie as a sounding board for an exposition on David's combative resentful relationship with this father. Another scene shows his current girlfriend seeking help from a therapist who seems to understand how dangerous David is. Neither of these scenes pan out or add anything to the movie in the long run, they may as well have been cut.Cordell Moore, who plays David, comes across as such an over-the-top maniac it's hard to feel any sympathy for him and it makes it even more implausible when his latest squeeze Tina (Denise Boutte) stays with him through repeated abusive episodes --- David isn't just a physical abuser, he's downright nasty to be around most of the time, even when he's showering her with gifts.The real problem, though, lies with director David Matthews. The film has a lot of pacing problems, never balancing the tension between David's current world with the paternity subplot helmed thanklessly by the normally very good Essence Atkins. There are times you wonder if one of the plots has just been dropped. Yes, this is a script problem but the director seems to not have had much input into this, or not cared. Unfortunately, at times, the whole thing seems a bit too much like a "hey-I-got-a-pile-of-money-to-blow-on-a-movie" experiment. It seems clotted with family and friends, many of whom can't act at all and who obviously are playing a "type:" Tempest Bledsoe (yes, THAT Tempest Bledsoe) and Thomas Miles as Harold (WHAT does this guy DO at David's office...is he doing a Jimmie Walker impersonation or is he just the Jive A** court jester?).It's too bad because this had some very interesting seeds of an intense character drama. But it's hard to make films like that. It's much easier to churn out formulaic psycho-husband movies, like this one. It makes Tyler Perry's pseudo dramatics almost seem professional by comparison.

This movie was almost a total waste of time if you had nothing better to do or just believe in supporting indie films it's okay.If you are expecting anything that holds the attention or even decent acting forget. To be fair the actors can't be blamed the writing was terrible which I can't understand when the premise of the movie had such potential.It seem to be a soap opera and not a very good one at that there was no character development nor any type of build up to important scenes. The dialog was unbelievable as well as strained to the point where nothing seemed realistic I would suggest that you see anything besides this movie unless you just want to be able to tell your friends that you saw a train wreck.
