Critical Mass
5.0 out of 5 starsFATAL ATTRACTION 2.0
September 24, 2015
MISSIONARY is like FATAL ATTRACTION on steroids. The setting and background for this movie - Mormon proselytizers - is merely a vehicle for the warped psychopathology of one of them who dreams of a "united celestial family". Mitch Ryan (who plays the role of Elder Brock) is certainly highly credible as a youthful Mormon under the tutelage of fellow Mormon, Elder Whitehall. After what appeared to be a completely unsuccessful attempt to make any inroads with a woman named Katherine (separated at the time from her husband Ian, played by Kip Pardue), the situation suddenly reverses when Katherine's son Kesley gets some unexpected football help from Brock. A fall in the mud, a borrowed change of clothing, and a glance at a semi-nude young man, creates a domino effect that attracts Katherine's attention and stimulates her need and desires. One thing leads to another and, before you can say Utah, the two are entwined in a torrid affair. In the meantime, Katherine's husband wants to get back together which leads to a deadly and conflicted triangle. The rapidity with which Katherine and Brock's relationship evolved was then blunted and collapsed even more quickly. But Brock wasn't taking "NO" for an answer. Katherine then discovers the true nature and past of her would be lover/stalker. What follows is a rollercoaster ride of physical, emotional, and psychological conflict involving all major protagonists (with Kesley caught in the whirlpool). How it all comes to an explosive conclusion, I leave to the viewer. But make no mistake about it. There is plenty of gore and lethal action, not to mention a goodly number of F-bombs.
A pet rabbit in a pot of boiling water a la "Fatal Attraction" is nothing compared to what happens in "Missionary". As a final aside, this movie takes place in Florida where "stand your ground" and personal ownership of guns is the prevailing mentality - a fitting backdrop to the violence seen in MISSIONARY. Where are the "Jehova's Witnesses" when you need them?

3.0 out of 5 starsDon't mess with the Missionary Man....
February 12, 2015
Creepy missionary man gone bad and stalks the wife and mother he has come to know and love. Nice little sleeper movie about a missionary man who after spending some intimate time with a woman and her son he becomes dangerously close to them. It is your usual obsession type movie on a small budget, but this is the performances that make the movie work. Kip Pardue plays an attractive missionary man who seems nice on the outside, but holds several secrets deep down. His target is a woman and her son who are estranged from her husband, but as the movie goes along she slowly is finding her way back to him much to the dismay of the missionary.

Some intense moments, some spicy sex scenes and nice action wrap up this movie. While it could be just your basic lifetime network late night thriller Kip Pardue's performance pushes it over the edge.

3.0 out of 5 starsReligious Freak Let-Down
November 11, 2014
Format: Prime VideoVerified Purchase
I sincerely enjoyed the premise of this film; young, Mormon missionaries embroiled in steamy sex scenes with frustrated housewives. Who wouldn't want to see that? Right? The first part of "Missionary" is truly entertaining. I was engrossed in its bucolic debauchery and was impressed with the cast and acting. But, I think the screenwriter over estimated the appeal of being stalked by a religious freak. The denouement was predictable and boring, a let down. However, the ethereal final scene was creative and unexpected. I wish the writer had more confidence in the audience to have added more of these freakish, Latter-Day Saint flashes. All in all, I wouldn't recommend "Missionary" if you're looking for anything but a run-of-the-mill stalker film.

The Movie Guy
3.0 out of 5 starsTHIS IS NOT A SOLUTION,
October 1, 2014
Format: Prime Video
Katherine (Dawn Olivieri) is a struggling mom with a 12 year old son Kelsey (Connor Christie). She is separated from her cheating husband Ian (Kip Pardue) who is attempting to get back into her good graces. Meanwhile, she is visited by some Latter Day Saints missionaries, one of whom she starts seeing romantically. Kevin (Mitch Ryan) is ten years younger than her and has difficulty adjusting his master cosmic plans when Ian comes back into the picture and he is left out.

This is your typical jilted lover/stalker film except it is a Mormon in the bad guy role. Nice little twist, but the film is nothing extraordinary.

Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Dawn Olivieri) 2 1/2 stars

3.0 out of 5 starsThis wasn't the best one I've seen
March 23, 2015
Format: Prime Video
Typical obsession type of role in which a Morman from the church gets involved with a mother... This wasn't the best one I've seen. the acting seemed to be a bit dry compared to similar movies in this role. The mother showed very little emotion through-out the film and the Mormons acting was way out of line. ..

overall its ok.
