Best movie so far for outstanding Liz Gillies
Killing Daddy is an intense drama about a young girl, Callie, with deep psychological problems who wants revenge for what her father did to her and her mother. It's a beautiful, intense and also a sad story, well written and very well performed. Callie is played by Elizabeth Gillies and she really has done an amazing job. It's really impressive how she manages to play a very disturbed girl in a way that makes you relate to her and feel with her. This lifts this what otherwise would be a typical lifetime movie to a different level. Gillies is able to make Callie a versatile character both strong and vulnerable, and this makes it to me her best movie so far. It shows her potential to become a very big star in the future, no doubt about that.
Average TV movie
Don't read if you haven't seen the movie yet. Acting is almost OK but the story has many holes.It is watchable but not a great movie at all, ... The guy who killed her dad is just too stupid to be real... Also I don't get it why did she have to burn the place down - she drew unnecessary attention. And then she even used her father's gun and left it with one bullet less in the house!! And then she is stupidly rude with father's lover, housemade.WHY???? I like the end, she's not crazy after all just pretending to get away from the charges of double murder... And one thing's kind of left in the air is;, have they confirmed another testimony ?
villainy rooting interest
Callie Ross (Elizabeth Gillies) is stealing and getting fired in her aimless life. She steals her petty criminal boyfriend Jake's truck. With nowhere to go, she decides to go home. Her father, who originally cut her off, had a vegetative stroke. Despite her stepmother Emma (Cynthia Stevenson) and half-sister Laura Ross (Tori Anderson)'s open arms, Callie sees an opportunity to seek revenge for her mother who committed suicide. Trying to tell a story from the villain's side is always difficult and infinitely fascinating. It's different from other Lifetime TV movies in that the female lead is not a victim. In fact, I expected a tale of sexual abuse by the father. I guess it's interesting that it does not go down that path. It would elevate the stakes if the money amount is bigger. The style is strictly Lifetime TV. The switch does leave a confused rooting interest and resign this to a limited idea. Gillies has a damaged bratty beauty persona. She needs to spice it up with some more volatile violence. She needs to single white female this more.
loved every minute of it
Killing Daddy is no question my favorite Lifetime movie ever. The intense, dramatic story and the brilliant acting of main character Liz Gillies make this one very special. I love how from the beginning you can see how disturbed main character Callie is, she really is crazy, yet you also fully understand why she feels the way she does about her family. The story is completely about how Callie tries to get revenge on her father and there are whole scenes were she is the only one, I think Callie is in 99% of the scenes. This is very well done by Liz Gillies, who does an extreme good job, very impressive. The end is quite sad, as can be expected from a Lifetime movie but it's yet more prove of Liz Gillies talent that she makes you wish things would have ended better for Callie.
best TV movie I've ever seen
I totally agree with the good reviews this movie got. Killing Daddy's easily the best TV movie I've ever seen. Interesting plot, and very good acting of the main character. I love how the story is told from Callie's point of view so you relate to her even though she is the 'bad guy' (well, girl) in the story. Elizabeth Gillies', who plays Callie, acting is outstanding, she's the other reason you completely relate to Callie. Very well done. The story has a good build up and leads to a dramatic finale. It really captured me and I was really impressed both by the story as the acting. Killing Daddy is my new favorite TV movie! I would recommend this movie to anyone who likes a good psychological thriller/drama.
