In "Lethal Love Letter," there is an fascinting dialectic at work between a tidy, organized world and a state of complete chaos. The dynamic Amelia Sommers has created a successful business called "Squirrel" in which she consults with her clients on how to organize their lives in meaningful ways. But in the miasma of chaos in her own life, the universe of Amelia may best be described as semi-organized clutter.

The filmmakers were successful in developing dramatic tension in the uncertainty of who is disrupting Amelia's beautifully organized world. The three suspects are Amelia's ambitious assistant Becca; an overly zealous client named Forrest Jacobs who is clearly enamored of Amelia; and Amelia's old beau Mark, an enormous man, with whom she was in love in college.

The clashing of a giant Redwood of a man in Mark and the granite block of a woman in Amelia results in the rough equivalent of nuclear fusion.

It is clear from the beginning that a user named "Chaos" is stalking Amelia. But the main questions are: (1) who is Chaos? And (2) what is the motivation for the harassment? A character who may hold the key to solving the puzzle is Vicky, the sister of Liv, the deceased wife of Mark, who allegedly wrote Amelia the lethal love letter identified in the film's title. An intriguing scene at the funeral at the start suggests that Vicky is withholding something crucial.

The film made an allusion to Marie Kondo, a well-known consultant and expert on organizing one's life. The premise of a brilliant organizer was the backdrop for the dilemma faced by Amelia when she must confront the chaos in her life. By the end, it is clear that relying on herself will not be enough to clean up the mess. She needs the support of her friends to truly discover the "meaningful tidiness" on which her world is founded.

Kind of a sleeper.....but then the viewer wakes up when it starts to get good. Amelia runs a successful blog but gets a mysterious letter from an ex's dying wife. She ends up getting involved with him again, though. But then you have to ask why did she break up with him in the first place? He's creepy and controlling but easy on the eyes and Amelia falls for Mark once again. Big mistake! You will have to tune it to see what happens next. This was a pretty good Lifetime movie and would recommend!

Lethal Love Letter (my latest review) refers to a letter from a terminally ill wife to her husband's ex-girlfriend. I mean how unusual is that? And why would the letter tell said ex-girlfriend to get back together with said husband? Huh? What? Really?

Anyway, "Lethal" has a solid foundation for a good Lifetime network dweller. The problem is that you don't feel any kind of danger for the personas as victims. Lethal Love Letter is like the Romper Room version of a Lifetime thrill ride when it could be so much more. Sure the background music is ominous and people get quasi-murdered but it's just filler as far as I'm concerned.

So yeah, you wanna see "Lethal's" bad guy (played by Rick Malambri) appear more like a JCPenney catalog model than an actual villain? Nah, I didn't think so. And do you want to invest in a flick where the protagonist's job involves working on a homemade blog called Squirrel? Uh no.

Released in June of this year, touted as a mystery whodunit, and featuring a viable running time of 92 minutes, Lethal Love Letter is about a single businesswoman (Amelia) being harassed by an unknown dolt bent on trying to ruin her life. Amelia gets evil texts and emails along with bouts of home invasion throughout. As the viewer, you eventually figure out who is stalking her about 45 minutes in. Oh and what a bland, dry, and non-threatening stalker he is.

With editing that is choppy, characters who are wishy-washy with big shifts in tone, and a final confrontation that feels like theater play acting, Lethal Love Letter is a straight-up, mixed review for me. Heck, there was never a moment that grabbed my lapels or made me think bad thoughts. Lethal Love Letter as a cinematic "lethal weapon?" I think not.
