Former The Wonder Years mainstay Danica McKellar stars in this another "The Wrong _____" Lifetime movie about dental assistant that has been wrongly accused of murder entitled "The Wrong Woman".Well,after being into a lot of "The Wrong _____" movies this weekend that could probably be classified as average and mediocre while this review was written,I finally found something that I would probably consider a notch above mediocre in the sense that it was able to provide excitement in its plot twists and common story lines.Ellen Plainview is a dental assistant at a dental office that has been secretly taking pole dancing lessons at night to bring added joy and sensuality to her sex life with her husband Mike,who also works as a cop.Suddenly one day,two detectives arrested Ellen for the case of an attempted murder of Faye Walker.Things begin to look overwhelming as she starts getting represented by a seemingly incompetent lawyer and the amount of evidence goes against her.In the end,she decided to defend herself being a Law Student after her lawyer decided to leave her and decided to prove her innocence to the court and the viewers as well.The movie is basically the standard "The Wrong _____" having the protagonist being against a villain who is trying to put a trainwreck on her life;the least suspected person being the villain; and protagonist trying to put an end to the terror the villain is putting in her life. But what makes it a notch above the standard Lifetime movie and the "The Wrong _____"-type movies is the fact that we got involved in an interesting court room drama.The court room drama was good enough to be entertaining especially with Ellen representing herself as a lawyer.Danica McKellar did well in terms of performance in proving her innocence during the court room scenes.She made them truly entertaining despite being predictable or the viewer knowing that she will get the "Not Guilty" verdict in the end.She played Ellen with passion especially being her own lawyer.No wonder there was a sequel made for it entitled "Mommy,I Did Not Do It" which I will review later.

This diverting piece of nonsense is genuinely entertaining in its bland simplicity. Danica McKellar is a happy suburban housewife with a decent job, a beautiful child, and a husband who is a police officer. Everything is hunky dory. Little does she know (although the viewer guesses immediately) that trials and tribulations lay just around the corner.A woman is beaten to death with a tire iron in the same parking lot used by McKellar. Circumstances build up against her. Her hair was found on the victim's body. An eyewitness saw her cleaning blood from a tire iron before disposing of it. She's arrested and thrown in jail. Her husband, not knowing what to think, packs up without warning and leaves with their pretty little girl, whose mind he subsequently poisons against her. She's suspended from her job. So far -- and throughout -- the story is archetypal: a woman falsely accused, gossiped about, deserted by everyone, empowers herself, defeats her enemies, and finds true love.That's it, in a nutshell, but a few more details are worth while. First, all men are beasts. They're all smug, arrogant, and hateful. The only male who actually comes across as an actor is a former football player, Fred Dryer, who takes his time to work through his oversimple character. He's almost the only believable performer in the movie. And I don't say that just because he and I share an alma mater. Well, there is one more relatively subtle performance, and convincing too. The witness who falsely claims that McKellar assaulted her with a music stand in high school. I think her name is Jennifer Blanc. She should have been the lead. McKellar herself is cute enough and has a neat figure but the role compels her to act dumber than she turns out to be, and her voice is a strident version of a Valley Girl's.About two thirds of the way through, the helpless heroine, adrift in an antagonistic world, inexplicably finds herself and demolishes the case against her with confidence and aplomb. The end.

I just watched this movie on lifetime 9/19/14. I was yelling at the TV practically the whole movie! Her whole case should've been thrown out of court! She wasn't properly mirandized! She's questioned by the officers in interrogation, she asks to call her husband, next thing you know they tell her that her bond is $500,000 and they are locking her up! Her lawyer was a joke and should've known that right from the beginning. Another thing! She was the wife of a police officer! She didn't have any knowledge of correct police procedures. Seems like her husband taught her nothing about how to handle police matters or correct procedures. She should've told her lawyer that she wasn't properly mirandized and any evidence obtain thereafter would be thrown out. In fact, the whole case should've been thrown out on a technicality! Her husbands behavior seemed off to me. He seemed like he didn't really care if she went to prison. I suspected him at first. I was correct that he was screwing around. Anyway, had to get this off my chest!

This movie was extremely disappointing. Danica McKellar's performance was weak and annoying. Her voice was not strong, even before she was charged with a crime. Even in the supposed every day life she seemed weak and unsure. That made it difficult to watch from the start. She was poorly cast. Even had the character been played and someone unsure of themselves, the actor should have a stronger voice. There was no righteous indignation, something that would generally been seen in a suspect making McKellar, as the main character, poorly cast.I would not recommend this movie under any condition. We couldn't watch it through to the end because of the poor unbelievable script and the poor acting. This is one of the worst movies we have seen in ages. The poorly written script, poorly cast characters, poor acting coupled with very weak performances along with unbelievable character behavior makes this the dud of the year. There are a lot of good movies out there. Don't waste your time with this.
