Enjoyable premise, although unlikely to really occur in real life - the idea of a mentally unwell woman stealing her own sister's identity, it does play well onscreen.
The lead actress, Nicole Marie Johnson makes the film work playing 2 roles of both twins. She's very talented and I think she could be a lead in something bigger down the road.
There are some massive plot holes that don't get resolved but besides that I did enjoy this movie (for a lifetime movie). The woman who plays the daughter also did a good job. 6/10.

Enjoyable lifetime movie with a good lead actress
Good Storyline, But...
This would have been a really really good movie. Unfortunately it was ruined by a lousy ending. If this was not a Lifetime movie the ending would have been much much better. I won't give anything away, but there is a glaringly obvious loose end that is not addressed at the end. It is this unaddressed loose end that left me very very disappointed. So instead of a 7 or 8 star rating, it gets a 5 star for its poor ending. The acting overall, however, was very good and the general storyline was also very good. An improved remake of this movie would be very easy - especially if it has absolutely nothing to do with Lifetime!!!
One Of The Slightly Better Lifetime Movies, Just About!
I have watched 4 Lifetime movies this week, 2 got turned off, one was very good (Girl In The Basement) This one was watchable. It was still not great but the acting wasn't quite intollerable. Story somewhat unbelievable with a tiny twist at the end. Watchable if you have nothing else to watch, like really nothing else to watch. Daytime soap quality.
