The first time I saw this movie was on Lifetime channel in 2014, it's at best a popcorn thriller with a simple plot that somehow manages to work well.
Do No Harm tells the story of an up and coming fashion designer who suffers a tragic loss when her fiancé dies in a plane accident, then for the next year is placed under the care of a psychiatrist who as the film continues begins to show a dark and obsessive side.
Lauren Holly as Dr. Thorne makes for an OK villain, she appears to be caring and compassionate , but later on she oversteps the line between doctor and patient when she begins stalking Emily (Russo), following her at the mall, sneaking into the spa when she's getting a massage, destroying her drawings at work and even planting seeds of doubt in the head of her new boyfriend Ian (Greene).
Sarah Allen as Gillian Stewart is supportive. She's the only one who stands by Emily and believes her, When she discovers the reason behind Thorne's motives for interfering in her best friend's life is shocking.
For fans of simple films watch Do No Harm. Give it a 5.2/10

It was a decent thriller, with some twists here and there. I was distracted by the fact the majority of actors have grey eyes, and the colour theme is brown, white, grey. The beginning was very sad, when Emily's boyfriend is killed in an accident. This movie is okay, at first, but later the film turned bat crazy. It lost itself.

It was ok movie. Could have given more details on what actually happened to the Psychiatrist daughter.

I can't really understand the lowly rating given to this pretty good thriller which, though far from perfect, provides an overall decent watch and, in particular, a fine vehicle for the beautiful Deanna Russo and convincingly menacing Lauren Holly.
Ok, it's not the sort of movie to win too many awards, but surely the most important issue is to entertain which it does achieve in abundance.
Once again, movie snobbery seems to win.
