Standard plot #7 in the LMFC (Lifetime Movies for Chicks) playbook.

The actors are generally engaging for a LMFC, the dialogue is somewhat better than average, and I only noticed one faux pas (I'm sure I missed 10).

A "5" is a good score for a LMFC. Recommended.

"Lethal Admirer" (a.k.a., "A Friend's Obsession") is all about how we judge other people. In the case of Miss Megan Libby, a character named Lloyd Munroe is a nerdish co-worker who will stop at nothing to keep Megan in his life. But Megan is too slow in recognizing the danger signs of a love-crazed nut job.

Women always sense when a guy is a friend and when he wants more than friendship. The film implausibly depicts Megan as so naive as to not see the signs that are all too blatant. The two most inconceivable choices she makes are (a) to invite Lloyd to accompany her to the wedding of her bestie, Brooke; and (b) to agree to have dinner with Lloyd at his home after his strange behavior at the wedding reception.

Libby's boyfriend Chris is equally naive when he witnesses a strange reaction from Lloyd who is fixing Chris's computer and lets fly with a zinger that Chris merely brushes off. Chris should have compared notes with Megan about her little "friend."

The phone conversations between the nut job and his dear mother really didn't work. The fact that Lloyd was a big mama' boys was established early on. The phone talks were repetitive and slowed down the pace of the film.

Megan's relationship with her sister Kate is one of the most interesting in the film. It is the quick-thinking nurse Kate who first starts to grasp the deeply troubled nature of the nut job Lloyd. The enduring bond of love between sisters will eventually save the day against a love-crazed nut job.
