Honestly didn't know what to expect. Cinematography was fine, something was off that made it feel cheap. The main character's blog made no sense. The boss/ villain in the story literally had no motive on tricking her into being a "sugar baby" or whatever she was. This film was more of a comedy to me than a thriller.... /:

What even was this
Absolute Control
Whatever title you prefer, "Sugar Baby Murder" or "Her Deadly Sugar Daddy," this film is preposterous from the perspective of both the sugar baby and the sugar daddy!
Miss Bridget Caprice is an aspiring writer recently transplanted from Arizona to Los Angeles. Bridget's father, Lawrence Caprice, was a famous novelist, who died when Bridget was sixteen. Now, she wants to do her father proud by becoming a famous blogger!
Enabled by her bubbly bestie Lindsey, Bridget takes the bait from a nefarious and crooked con artist named Anthony J. Glonz. Anthony makes Bridget an offer she can't refuse as his high-priced "Executive Assistant." Her principal duties involve the entertaining of Anthony's male clients, whom he films for the purpose of blackmailing. Anthony's motto is the "absolute control" that he wants to possess over his clientele, including his naive executive assistant.
Bridget's dream is to write for a blog called "Swerve," whose motto is "truth so raw." But the film never rang true with Bridget succumbing to the mesmerizing predator Anthony. Both her former boyfriend Zach and her mother Jolene warn her about the sleazy Anthony, yet the gullible Bridget completely ignores their good counsel. None of the scenes of Bridget's interactions with Anthony's clients made sense because she only sat next to them in restaurants and did some flirting in the new, garish outfits she had purchased on Rodeo Drive.
Things come to a head at Anthony's mansion, where the entire group of Bridget, Lindsey, Jolene, and Zach may be killed by Anthony and his thug Damon Radovich. It is only due to the quick-thinking mom Jolene that Bridget will be spared the miserable and predictable fate of a hapless sugar baby.
And what is it that Bridget has learned from the experience? As she strolls confidently in to the offices of Swerve in the denouement, the answer is clear: nothing.
Too many irate contributors LOL
OK first of all Lauren Swikard is a good actress. Those who criticised her performance (some of them in poor English I hasten to add) should take their time and watch other works of hers. So with that out of the way let's get to the story.. Basically it's about an over ambitious newly graduated clueless small town girl who moves to LA to make a name for herself as a blogger and not live in her late novelist dad's shadow. In trying to do that she ends up becoming a sugar baby, writing blogs about her experiences. Her mom on a visit immediately recognises what her daughter is doing, who by the way still thinks she's in total control and knows what she's doing. As they part company she makes an offensive remark to her mom. But in the end being a mom ends up saving her brat daughter's life!
Yes I do agree that the acting was not top notch for any of them. But hey it's not exactly Philadelphia or A Few Good Men, or Titanic! It's just an LMN PG14 movie! So less whining!
