Watch Drew Peterson: Untouchable For Free

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Lifetime movies are more often than not cliché dramas about girls who cut themselves or murdering housewives. This one takes a different turn - the murderer is a pervy old man named Drew Peterson.Pervy? How can he be pervy if he's a respected cop with loving children? Well, he's had two wives, and is about to leave the third for a much younger woman. When the third ends up drowned in the washroom of her own home, Drew immediately marries his intended fourth wife and has kids with her, and she doesn't listen to the warnings of her neighbors and friends...Maybe if she heeded their warnings, he wouldn't be missing.This movie has amazing acting, creepy soundtrack at all the right moments, and the plot is based on a true story. I highly recommend it, it's honestly no less creepy than a horror film.

Based on the true story. Following on from the disappearance of his fourth wife ('Big Bang Theory' star Kaley Cuoco Sweeting) police officer Drew Peterson (Rob Lowe 'About Last Night' and 'West Wing') finds himself under suspicion. Rob Lowe is superbly creepy as the police officer, who may or may not have something to do with his wife's disappearance. Kaley Cuoco Sweeting does a good job of the fourth wife, who finds herself trapped in a marriage with a controlling husband. William Mapother is worthy of praise as Peterson's partner. One of my problems with this was, that even behind his squinting eyes, and under his silver wig, moustache and tons of make up, he is still a very handsome man. Although he is so charismatic, it does make it a bit more believable that someone like Cuoco Sweeting would be interested in him. Defiantly worth watching. Once the credits rolled, I was straight online looking to see what happened after the end of the movie, and look more in to the story.

This was definitely one of the better true-life murder mystery movies on Lifetime. Rob Lowe did a great job of capturing Peterson's creepy and egotistical personality. When I saw the previews, I was a little cynical over how his performance would play out. To be honest, the previews made him look "silly", physically. But, once I got into watching the story, and learning more about the back story... Lowe delivered a fine performance. Great supporting cast. Kaley Cuoco was a refreshing choice for the role of Stacy Cales. And, Catherine Dent played a great supporting role, as well. Really showed the comradery that can exists between members of law enforcement. Kept me watching and interested the entire time.

Drew Peterson is so manipulatively slimy, and the beautiful women who play his pathetic wives so trapped and vulnerable, that this TV movie is excruciating to sit through.The classic story of a deeply troubled, uninsightful man who insists on wresting the ultimate control is brought to life here with heartbreaking verisimilitude.A practically unrecognizable Rob Lowe couldn't be more sinister and chillingly convincing as a shady cop and paranoid, abusive serial husband. Cara Buono, who played Christopher Moltisano's widow in The Sopranos, is great as third wife Kathy, particularly when she tells Drew's fourth wife that she pities her -- and foresees they'll end up the same. Also excellent is Kaley Cuoco as Stacy, who has the misfortune of crossing Drew's path when she is exceedingly rebellious and naive. (Along the way we are left to lament the lot of Drew's four children, who witness their parents having sex and in physical brawls.) This movie prompted me to refresh my memory about the case on Wikipedia. At Drew's 2012 trial for Kathy's death, the prosecution apparently tried to submit improper evidence, opening itself up to the risk of a mistrial -- yet Drew submitted a request to the judge that a mistrial not be declared.Is it possible that Drew wanted finally to take himself out of circulation so as never to again victimize another woman? It wouldn't at all seem in character, but one does have to wonder...
