Secrets at the museum or death at the museum is not really the worst of lfetimes movies to offer. At a museum a kids father gets knocked over by a car after having a argument that his art is getting stolen. We skip some time to this woman called natlie whos family owns an art gallery. Her mates do art to but they never get a chance. One night her father has an heart attack and is murdered. Poor natalie along with that has to deal with art pieces being replaced and someone might want her dead to. Derek is played by jonathan lipniki but sadly his acting felt very forced in this, overall not a great film but still watchable.

4 of us sat to watch this film. None of us could barely understand a word lead actress was saying....very unusual accent which we can't belive is real.....and speach seemed speeded up and words flowed into each other. Really terrible and off putting we abandon the film for something else.... I can't believe the producers did not spot how terrible the speech was. It was lovely to see Jonathan all grown up but still resembles the cute small boy from Jerry maguire......overall I think this film could have been alot better the story line was week and often didn't add up with gaps in the story line.

1 star is generous, this was painfully bad. The "plot" is extremely hard to follow and does not really make much sense whatsoever.

WORDS cannot express to you how outrageously terrible this film is.

I would not ever recommend anyone watch this pointless nothing film.

I do find it hard to believe that this was enjoyed by people because it is one of the worst things I have ever watched.

Overall the acting contributes to the failure & it makes it difficult to watch past 20 minutes as the acting/performances are utterly embarrassingly terrible. I'm sat here in utter disgust with the entirety of the film.

I think the best part of the movie were the last five minutes and I was so excited when the credits finally scrolled.

The plot wasn't the best, but the acting was so bad, who would notice the dodgy plot? There was no mystery behind the baddie in this story, as the lack of subtlety made it glaringly obvious from the start. And the lead actress was sadly very wooden, making it impossible to empathise with her...or to care!

The support cast weren't great but they positively shone compared to the leads.

I'm not sure if the director just couldn't bring out the best in the actors, or if it just wasn't there. But I really couldn't find much to like about this film. Seriously, don't waste your time. Go for a nice walk instead.

So yes it does have it's fair share of plot holes, but it undeniably kept me on the edge of my seat throughout its runtime. From the very beginning, it grabbed my attention with its pulse-pounding suspense and a cast of characters that were both enigmatic and compelling. While some of the narrative twists felt a bit far-fetched and left unanswered questions, the sheer intensity of the action and the superb performances by the lead actors made it an engaging ride. I found myself eagerly trying to piece together the puzzle, even if it meant overlooking a few gaps in the storyline.

In the end, while I may have wished for a tighter plot, I couldn't deny that the film had delivered a thrilling and entertaining experience that left me with a sense of satisfaction, if not complete closure.

Chelsea Vale single-handedly saved it from being a potentially dull experience. Her presence on screen injected a much-needed dose of energy and charisma that elevated the entire movie.

I saw this on the LMN (Lifetime Movie Network). As usual for LMN, the content feels like an R rated drama minus any hardcore swearing, violence, or nudity. There are adult situations such as depictions of people dying in traumatic ways (filmed tastefully and necessary for the story.)

What I like about this movie are the unique themes of "family grudges", "inherited responsibilities", and, of course, "secrets".

Also, a really interesting subplot in regard to the high-priced art world; specifically, the difference between being "inspired" by another artist versus simply ripping off their work.

In the heart-pounding thriller, Jonathan Lipnicki emerges as a remarkable talent on the rise. Their performance in the film was nothing short of exceptional, leaving an indelible mark on the audience. From the very first frame, he commanded the screen with a magnetic presence that showcased their potential as a rising star in the industry.

What truly stood out was Jonathan Lipnicki's ability to convey a wide spectrum of emotions with remarkable authenticity and precision. They seamlessly navigated the complexities of their character, moving effortlessly between moments of intense suspense and deep vulnerability. Watch it if your into movies like this.

What's great is how everything ties up neatly at the end, even though the journey there is full of unexpected moments. If you're in the mood for a thrilling ride and love movies that make you think, this is a must-watch. Big recommendation.

I normally never watch LMN because I don't have cable. But when I heard this was available on YouTube, I gave it a watch and I have to say, I am not surprised on how good this was knowing how the plot and story was just so unique that it needed to be made into a movie. I like how the story reflects on art because me personally, I think artists don't get the credit they deserve so this movie really had heart to it. The acting was very believable and authentic to real life. The paintings were very good on camera and the story was just very unique and intense. I think the director is changing the game with LMN pictures and the producers seem to have had history in creating films for Lifetime and I have to say truthfully, I think they are on a next level with film and television.

Director Glenn Ciano's expertise shines in creating an atmosphere of relentless tension, with impeccable cinematography and sound design. However, where the film falls short is in its storyline, which lacks depth and originality. The characters are one-dimensional, and the plot feels like a collection of clichés, relying on convenient plot devices and unlikely coincidences. While it entertains with its action, "Midnight Pursuit" fails to provide a compelling narrative, leaving the audience craving a more engaging and well-crafted story.

Despite its narrative shortcomings, "Midnight Pursuit" is worth a watch for its adrenaline-inducing action sequences and exceptional technical aspects. The film's gripping visuals and intense soundtrack elevate the suspense, making it an enjoyable experience for those seeking an action-packed thriller, even if it doesn't leave a lasting impact in terms of its storyline.

Crime and art.

More than interesting premise. Unfortunately, awful used. The young Natalie, performed by Madelaine Santos and her sunflower is one of ingredients of good start. Like the missing painting, maybe, like the accident.

But, for obscure motives, the role of adult Natalie is offered to Chelsea Vale the better, more- more- more better option being Stephanie Prata, par exemple . Because Chelsea Vale , with high profesionalism, massacrates the character scene by scene.

Second bad point - the confused, when it is not pure unrealistic, story. And the presumed twist, expected after the death of father. The romance ? It is an Hallmark, must be some romance ! Maybe not exactly, in this case. Because, poor Luke, poor Alex.
