I will start this review by saying that it was not a boring movie - it certainly kept me entertained for the duration of it. But it wasn't a good movie. To start with, I wasn't impressed with the performances. Everyone in the cast was good-looking, but nothing more than that. Emily Tennant had only one "distressed" expression in all of her sad/unpleasant scenes. I didn't see any depth from her, or from the others from the cast. Dina Meyer delivered the strongest performance, but it was nothing award worthy.The storyline was predictable. I knew that it was going to have the "twist" it had in the end - it was typical for movies of that genre.

Better than average Lifetime film dealing with high school teenagers who begin to receive texts which could prove very embarrassing to them.Two girls, who were once best friends, are now bitter enemies because of an event that shook their lives 2 years back. What makes the film good is that the girls soon realize that neither is sending the other the nasty texts and they work together to solve this mystery.I love the loose high school setting where just about anything goes on in the halls of academia.I also liked that the suicide of one girl may not have been suicide at all and that the obvious suspect is not so obvious after all.

Over the credits, a car crash looks deadly for three people. Mature-looking high school teenager Emily Tennant (as Taylor Sinclair) wakes up in her bed. It was only a dream. Word up, it's also a flashback. Two years ago, Ms. Tennant's dad died in that nightmarish accident, along with another couple. In school, Tennant attracts cute, leather-jacketed transfer student Keenan Tracey (as Cody Williams). He drives an amazing 1971 Skylark, which is exempt from smog checks. Very quickly, both Mr. Tracey and Tennant's other high school friends are victimized by a hooded Internet bully. This person seems to know all the dirt on everyone, and has embarrassing sex videos to share with the world. This all leads to tragedy...Tennant's widowed mother is sexy super-detective Dina Meyer (as Allison). Eventually, mom will have stuff to investigate. Even without a bullet-proof vest, she may be invulnerable. The villain "TRUTH&LIES" can't even give Ms. Meyer back pain. While handy in protecting her daughter, mom's tactics are not politically correct. In fact, they're offensive and illegal. For example, detective mom interrogates by threatening a suspect with rape or other physical abuse in a juvenile facility. If this woman knows an individual, presumed innocent, is about to be raped or otherwise assaulted, she should report it immediately. Instead, we have a character condoning the crime and using it as an interrogation tactic.*** Text to Kill (4/11/15) George Erschbamer ~ Emily Tennant, Keenan Tracey, Dina Meyer, Kurt Ostlund
