The film starts out as a family moves once again. Single alcoholic mom (Mira Sorvino) has three children and can't hold a job. Sisters Sandra (Abigail Breslin) and Beth (Georgie Henley) dream of the idea life, one where mom bakes strawberry cupcakes. Mom turns their dreams into nightmares with a train of abusive boyfriends, the latest of which has designs for Beth. The girls conspire along with two friends to make their lives better by eliminating the problem.
Georgie Henley gave us a decent goth Fairuza Balk while Abigail Breslin was our slutty Barbie Doll. The film developed at the right pace and was fairly decent for the first hour, until the deed was done. At that point it moves rapidly and falls apart.
The film is made for Lifetime fans of true stories. This one should do as a rental with low expectations.
Parental Guide: F-bombs. No sex or nudity.
