Ah, the teenage years. I do not miss them. "Accused at 17" largely focuses on how out of control a teenage prank can become and emphasizes this point by death as the result. The most concerning note is that something like this could occur in real life.It is not so uncommon that different individuals involved with the scheme go on to take attitudes in different directions as the plot thickens and intensifies. I love the semi-sarcastic yet smooth way in which the detective says, "Get what's coming to you? Call me crazy, sounds like a threat" and could view this scene over and over again. It is not the best line of the movie however because later the villain's father responds to antagonism from his evil wife by saying, "I know what they call women like you." That was classic.Considering that Columbo was absent from the situation, the accused's mother did a fine job of sleuthing to expose the truth. Although far removed from teenage years, I would want that feisty character on my side if ever in similar trouble."Accused at 17" succeeds in interpreting teen angst in a justifiably and appropriately serious way, with important lessons to be applied.

4/25/13 This movie was based on a true story. Some teenage girls actually did take another girl out and ended up killing her. The movie is a takeoff from the true story. Two girls, jealous of the dead girl because of her physical attractiveness and her grades and her boyfriend, and etc. did kill her. The first part is right if I remember. One of the murderers did seduce the dead girl's boyfriend but the murderers actually just invited the dead girl to a party and took her out in the desert in California and killed her. They are both in prison for life, now, I think. The acting is all right although I don't know the name of the actor who plays the mother of the accused. I think Robert Moses, the father of the murderer in the movie, is a very good actor. I've seen this movie twice.Jean

Accused At 17 is a movie that I thought was going to be similar to a teen lifetime movie,it was not.It had a potentially great story line, but the acting in the movie was horrible, I didn't believe the actors at all, their emotions unbelievable and unconvincing. The entire story line was great! except I don't believe that Two Mothers (Fallons' and Sarahs') would ever do what they did in real life, Yes I know this is a movie and it's not "Real" But it's a movie that was made to try and make teenagers think twice about they're actions and the outcome of doing something wrong, which means you would want to make the movie as realistic as possible (Like lifetime movies)and with what the parents did, or rather Didn't do I think makes this movie unrealistic in a way. Whoever the Director is needs to seriously consider finding another career, He or She Put effects and different Odd things in this movie to help give the right effect of the particular scene, but it backfired and made the scene look amateur and cheaply made. Also the sound was horrible in this movie You could majorly tell that they had pre-recorded there voices and added them in.I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE TO ANYONE.

"Accused at 17" seems like slow going at first — an incomprehensible set of opening shots, a title reading "Five days earlier," and a plot that for the first half-hour seems like yet another yawn-inducing tale of high-school rivalries and a put-upon heroine (Nicole Gale Anderson) who idealizes her dead father and can't stand the new boyfriend (Jason Brooks, better looking than the anonymous tall, lanky, sandy-haired guys Lifetime usually casts in these parts) of her mom Jacqui (Cynthia Gibb, top-billed). We that at some point the daughter, Bianca, is going to be accused of murder but we don't know whom she's going to kill until one day at a party — which Bianca can't attend because her mom's boyfriend is throwing an elaborate dinner party for them at his home — Bianca's boyfriend Chad (Reiley McClendon) is vamped and seduced by school slut Dory (Lindsay Taylor), giving us the sort of soft-core porn scene that makes a lot of otherwise lame Lifetime movies watchable. Bianca and her friends Fallyn (Janet Montgomery) and Sarah (Stella Maeve) work out a bizarre revenge plot that ends with Dory being bashed in with a rock in a remote canyon. As silly as much of "Accused at 17" is — one gets the impression through much of the first hour that it could just as well have been called "Valley Girls Go Bad" — it takes on power and force when (here comes the spoiler) Fallyn, Dory's actual killer, not only allows Bianca to take the rap but actively frames her for it and, in the film's most chilling scene, murders Sarah by depriving her of her anti-asthma medication just as Sarah is about to go to the police and implicate Fallyn. Janet Montgomery turns in an absolutely chilling performance as a teen girl who quickly descends from adolescent angst to criminal mania; if she keeps this up she'll be a good candidate for modern-day femme fatale roles as she grows up (watch for her!).
