“This is another amiable but undemanding entry to the Jane Doe series.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLea Thompson is comfortable in the role as Cathy, the housewife turned CIA agent who ends up investigating black op agents going on a killing spree through some kind of mind control and trigger words.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHer partner Frank (Joe Penny) is also getting some uncomfortable flashbacks of his tour of duty in Afghanistan.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film has shades of The Manchurian Candidate but for a family audience. We have some red herrings such as a suspect who uses hypnosis so he can have an audience who can listen to his karaoke singing.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis cable movie is pretty formulaic and by the numbers. There are side plots such as Cathyu0026#39;s husband trying to bag a tycoon as a client for his public relations firm, but the tycoon is obnoxious and he cannot see that. The family also has to deal with their son who has won money by illegal card games. These side plots just get in the way.”
