This is one of the better Lifetime movies. A couple's younger son (Matt) goes missing and ten years later, a boy returns, claiming to be Matt, but is he?

Writing Quality/Character Development: Pretty good script with lots of tension between the two brothers, because the lingering question continues to permeate between them: Is he really Matt? The mom is startled by Matt on a few occasions; her screams are pretty good! Matt, in particular, is well developed; we're never quite sure what to expect from him, especially when the family starts to question his identity and his motives.

Values: Protecting one's family.

Content (sex, language, & violence): No sex or language. Some violence throughout, but mostly tamed.

Scare Factor/Suspense: You see edginess in Matt that is concerning, so this keeps you on the edge of your seat.

A movie that keeps you intrigued, pulling you into the shadows of a dark mystery. And, a HEA!
