Wall Street JournalDorothy Rabinowitz
Program disputes aren't what fires this drama's energies—the credit belongs to a sharp script (Pamela Davis) and characters who come roaring to life in surprising ways.
Read Full Review >VarietyBrian Lowry
Credit Lifetime with an earnest attempt to tackle an important issue, down to the obligatory public-service announcement and outreach campaign. Any resemblance between this and a fully realized movie, however, is purely coincidental.
Read Full Review >Boston GlobeMatthew Gilbert
This could have been a movie about how the pact theory found irresistible momentum in the media, or about the bonds between pregnant teens, or about a conservative mother’s shame when her daughter gets pregnant. Instead, it’s a mishmash of facts, misinformation, and bland storytelling, one that fails both as truth and as fiction.
Read Full Review >Boston HeraldMark A. Perigard
The telefilm never pinpoints a motive for the girls’ behavior, so it casts about, laying blame at peer pressure, a poverty of imagination, working-class desperation and even Jamie Lynn Spears’ pregnancy, hoping one will stick. It’s blather.
