Who writes this bad? Poorly crafted storyline, even poorer script-implausible, illogical, stupid. Don't waste your time. Oh ... and the constant music is so irritating!

So many holes in the plot!! Why didn't the sheriff look at the girls room and find the money! Why didn't the sheriff look round the whole lake and find the boat used!. Wouldn't watch again or suggest to friends.

In the majestic Sierra Nevadas, the picturesque town of Mammoth Lakes beckons tourists and nature lovers. In "Hidden Truth," the physical beauty of the region is contrasted with the sordid realities of the town where sinister forces lurk beneath the pleasant surface. Young Zoe Niven is a bratty and ungrateful teenager, who takes for granted her kind Aunt Jamie, her guardian after the murder of Zoe's mother Layla. Her father, Pace Niven, is an auto mechanic and a former alcoholic, who was incapable of raising Zoe after Layla's death. Pace himself was the number one suspect in the case that went unsolved. The community still has its suspicions spinning around Pace. Prior to her seventeenth birthday, Zoe confides in her friend Natalie that she has a "sponsor" and that she has nearly earned enough money to flee the town that she despises. When Zoe fails to show for the birthday party that Aunt Jamie had planned, the first thought is that Zoe has run away. But, tragically, she has been murdered by her sugar daddy, Michael Evans, the proprietor of the local lodge and an investor in property. When Michael became abusive, Zoe threatened to blow the whistle on him to his wife Veronique, her aunt, the police, and anyone else in Mammoth Lakes who would listen. Instead, Zoe winds up at the bottom of the lake, just like her mother who was also killed by Michael. The film was well-acted, especially the performer playing Aunt Jamie. The only problem with this well-crafted movie was that it was totally depressing!!! One of the interesting secondary roles was Veronique, Michael's long-suffering wife. Her character could have been fleshed out more completely because surely she suspected her husband was knee-deep in pathological behavior. Even in the denouement, there was nothing to celebrate in the somber meeting of Jamie and Pace. The brother and sister can only reflect on the tremendous loss of their family members and the perpetual state of affairs in Mammoth Lakes that is constantly plagued by a case of the small town blues.

Awful, self-conscious, wooden acting and script reminiscent of a first term drama school improv. Editing seems to have been done with a knife and fork by a ten year old. The premise is good, with one woman attempting to exonerate her brother and solve the murder of her niece in the face of small town prejudice and slow witted, disinterested police force, but the screenplay is littered with plot holes and illogical procedural *-ups so the whole thing, which could have been interesting and compelling, is instead simply embarrassing.

The girl on video is seen getting into the murderer's car by the aunt playing detective. But she DIDN'T EVEN MENTION THIS TO THE SHERRIFF. Then she finds an eye witness 15 year old who tells her crucial evidence and she DOES NOT EVEN TRY TO TELL THE SHERRIFF. It makes you want to tear your hair out several times and FFWD to the end to see the ending so you can stop wasting your time. Could easily have been an average thriller. Poor acting often. Just bad waste of time. AVOID this one!

After watching the movie again and reading some of the reviews, I decided to change my contribution. As one contributor said, the movie was full of plot-holes and sloppy mistakes (paraphrasing). 1 - In any murder investigation one of the places the police search would obviously be the victim's home or in this case bedroom. Obviously they did not because it was Jamie who found the thousand dollars in an envelope in Zoe's room. 2 - When the sheriff threw the first accusation that Pace, Zoe's father, might be the murderer, Jamie failed to mention that he was at her house at the time of the murder. I am sure the body was not in the water that long for time of death not to have been determined. 3 - Law enforcement are not allowed to interview minors without parents or close family member present. But we see in the flashback, the sheriff grilling Zoe and putting words in her mouth, as her dad Pace is watching on from the back seat of a cruiser. 4 - The sheriff and his sidekick deputy were too busy speculating and assuming instead of interviewing everyone involved in Zoe's life, i.e. Her best friend Natalie so on and so forth. 5 - In the end after the case is solved, thanks to Jamie alone, the sheriff staring thoughtfully at the lake tells his deputy: I've been the sheriff in this town some 30-odd years and these are the only two homicides. Yeah, right and look how they got solved? I like Sarah Lind and Jessica Morris, and it's a pity they were cast in such a disaster of a thriller movie! But I still stand by my original comment, turns out mother and daughter were sl-ts. Poor Pace and Jamie.
