The "Flirting With Danger" Thread

[LaLa247]

A small nitpick: the movie was called Flirting With Danger, except there was little flirting to be had. Screwing with Danger or Humping Danger Silly would've been more like it.

Sadly, I've watched a lot of these Lifetime/Oxygen type movies. Not out of want but out of duress.

They are all the same. The story gets wrapped up in the last ten minutes and leave you going "jeeze, that was rushed". They always spend too much time on stupid things and the editing is always horrible, jumping around. They always go for the "omfg!" twist at the end that feels forced.

No different here. And the same thing that Penny brought up that is in all of them. All men want frigid controlling women! Grrr!

The only saving grace was getting to see CC. And getting to see CC barely clothed...a lot. Even for cable, it was pretty hot. She was the one shining star in an otherwise dreary sky.

To be honest, as long as she is in SOMETHING and staying in the public eye, that is all that really matters. Even if the part isn't as great as we would like it to be.

I didn't make it. I started watching the movie, but everything annoyed me. The hero annoyed me. The pal annoyed me. The plot annoyed me. And I decided to stop watching before even CC annoyed me.

And, as a greedy fan, I'd much rather CC hold off for something really good and/or entertaining that I will just out and out love watching...and that I know will look great on her resume. But this is her job, she has to put food on the table, and it is important for her to stay in the public eye. So, the unselfish fan in me will support any choices she makes, knowing they will lead to bigger and better things.

Um, if you have TiVo, you can just enter the name "Flirting With Danger," and if it's in the next 2 weeks, TiVo should find it. You don't have to set a TiVo like those old VCRs, thnak goodness.

Other DVRs may not have TiVo's sophistication, so YMMV.

Is there any place to check the rating for this? Just curious

[Livvie]

Usually Zap2It will post weekly ratings. Since this week isn't over, they don't have them done yet.

Bad news though, since it was on Lifetime, its under the cable ratings. They haven't updated those since Feb. 5th. I am sure if we start emailing the webmaster, they will update the cable ratings.

Does anyone here planning to make vidcaps of the movie?

[Emmangel]

Would anyone be willing to burn a copy of this movie to disk, or upload a HQ version for me to see?

I'd love to do caps for my site etc, but living in the UK, I have no way to see it.

Amen. I started it and just couldn't stick it out. It was not my thing and that's after a lifetime of Harliquins and Nora Roberts. You'd think I'd have a stronger constitution.

If it had been titled Humping Danger Silly I would have been infinitely more likely to stick with it. Bwah!

I hope Flirting with danger airs in Finland......

I watched this, and she played the part for what it was. Being a loyalist, I'm at least happy that she's still finding work. It's been said before that this is a job and a business. You take what you can get.

I haven´t watched the movie yet, so I can´t really form an educated opinion, but the worst case scenario would be that I find the movie bad like some other people have found it to be, but the again one has to consider that she is an actress who has to make sure that she stays in the public eye and also provides food on the table, and you can´t do that by sitting at home! You have to take what you can get, at least until you are in the position where you can chose the kind of work you want to do! And in the end, if Charisma C. thinks she did her best, than that´s all anybody can ask for! After all, she is the one doing the actual work and not us! So even if the movie didn´t hit it with the viewers the way it should have, she has at least one thing going for her; she is still out there, and eventually better material will come up!
