Storyline

When two best friends go missing during Spring Break, their mothers do everything they can to find them, while realizing that their different parenting styles may have led to the disappearances. Loving but overprotective mom Rene's worst fears come true when her 18-year-old daughter Kaitlin and her best friend Matty go missing from a San Diego resort during Spring Break. Rene will stop at nothing to find her daughter, even if it means starting her own investigation into the night her daughter went missing. With the help of her son Kennedy and Matty's mom Lisa, Rene navigates the San Diego Spring Break scene, digging into her daughter's night of partying, and discovering some unsettling facts about Kaitlin's secret life. With the clock ticking, Rene gets closer and closer to the truth about her daughter's disappearance. But will she make it to her daughter in time or is she already too late?

User Reviews

Good acting by Zuniga

The writers and director have the actors looking west from California to take photographs of a sunrise. I don't think you can do this. I believe the script says the location is Coronado, CA. Is "Pacific Point" a real place? What am I missing here? As long as I've been alive the sun has risen in the east. The actors have given credible performances. The story line is flabby and, aside from a harrowing experience for Mom, the dialogue, photography and character development are uninspiring. I'm not sure what the theme is in this movie. If it is a warning to young people to behave better and use the brains their parents gave them when it comes drugs, alcohol and avoiding handsome guys with no morals, they could probably do better spending Saturday nights for a couple of months observing what goes on in the emergency room of the hospital where I used to work.
