I have to admit that I wasn't really harboring much of any high expectations for this 2017 Lifetime thriller as I sat down to watch it late in 2022.
First of all, I had never heard about the movie, bnot that is a hindrance for watching it, but the movie's title was really corny. A poorly selected title, which sort of sends a false impression about the movie-
The storyline in "Daughter for Sale", as written by Vesta Giles, turned out to be interesting enough. Sure, it was fairly generic for a Lifetime movie, but it made for an adequate enough viewing. Though, it should be said that you pretty much know how the entire movie will play out before you watch it. So director Farhad Mann wasn't exactly delivering a spectacular thriller here.
The acting performances in "Daughter for Sale" were fair enough, taking into considerations the limitations of the script and all.
While "Daughter for Sale" was watchable enough, this is by no means a movie that warrants more than a single viewing. And I know what I will not be returning to watch it a second time.
If you enjoy Lifetime movies, then give "Daughter for Sale" a chance.
My rating of "Daughter for Sale" lands on a four out of ten stars.
