The woman was so stupid because they needed her to get the gun that had the criminals prints on it. Without her, he's screwed and she should've used that leverage against him from the start.
A smart person would've let the criminal know he goes to prison without her help and who's really in charge there! Also, she had so many opportunities to just tell the police what's going on and get help.
She could've had her home and the hotel room surrounded by a SWAT team within minutes and ended it all quickly. The criminal over at the house wouldn't have killed the family with the SWAT team right outside.
The ending was laughable with the gun changing so many hands in the hotel room. And why on earth make the girl holding the gun on the criminal put the handcuffs on him when she needs to keep the gun held on him?! How dumb can you be? Why didn't the other girl do that so her friend can keep the gun on him?
I'm giving it 4 stars because the keystone cop ending was pretty funny.

Watchable but dumb
Wild Gina Mancetti & Katy "the Greatie" Schultzman
This Lifetime film was disappointing because of the extreme unpleasantness of the characters and the dramatic situations. The conceit is that of a reunion of two high school students, Gina Mancetti and Katy Schultzman. While Gina has never grown up and runs with the wrong crowd, Katy is happily married with two children and lives her life conservatively. But, fatefully, the immature Gina returns and disrupts Katy's happy life, turning it into the nightmare of the film's title.
From the outset, it is difficult to empathize with Katy after she abruptly leaves her husband and children for a day-long reunion with Gina. The women return to their old Lakeridge High School to reminisce about the past. They enter their old haunt of the drug store where they shop lift a bottle of peach brandy. Both women are complicit in stealing.
Then, Katy is introduced to Gina's boyfriend Ray, who, as a prank, pulls a knife on the unsuspecting Gina. Next, Katy is taken captive and forced to retrieve a gun at her place of work where Ray had murdered a young security guard. In the process, Ray murders the kind pharmacist Mr. Webster, brutally stabbing him. Katy's kids and her husband are held at gunpoint by Ray's boot-licking brother Ronnie.
At some point, the fimmakers could have sought some redeeming values in this overly violent film. The denouement was especially troubling in that Gina is let off with what is likely a six-month prison term after being an accomplice to two murders, theft, and kidnapping. As Felicity Huffman received a two-week prison sentence for having her kid's SAT scores doctored, the sixth-month term for Gina's role in a crime spree leaves a head-scratching feeling when, at the end, Katy reconciles with her friend and plans to renew their friendship after Gina's stint in prison!
