Twisted Sister

Were it not for fan-favorite Mena Suvari, this Lifetime thriller would be dead on arrival. But with Suvari I was willing to give it a chance. There are so many ill-conceived plot holes, the movie can't move past them.

Emily (Suvari) takes in long lost sister Lily, and as is typical in Lifetime movies, the sister is given essentially full access to her house and work.

Emily is roughed up at a storage facility and apparently NONE of the security cameras are working. Anyone who has been to a storage facility knows there are tons of cameras in every inch of the facility - so that's totally preposterous.

Lily does not come up on any cursory background check yet Emily doesn't bother to resolve this - ostensibly her long lost sister. AND she's given a job at her PR firm. What HR department would let that that slide?

When the DNA report, by the way produced by estranged husband Kyle, shows no match, why doesn't Lily immediately dispute it and insist the report be double checked at the lab. She just casually accepts it.

Longtime employee Cassie sends in a proposal to a client based on an "okay" from day-old newbie Lily rather than get an ok directly from her boss. Who does that?

It turns out both Kyle and Lily are inexplicably egregious liars. So much so, I'm not even sure we really even know the truth. Notwithstanding, the "truth" was about as convoluted and as incredulous as I've ever seen in a Lifetime movie - and that's saying a lot.

This was officially a stupid unsatisfying movie.
