Ridiculous lack of self-preservation instincts

Protagonist inherits a huge amount of money & a mansion, but doesn't get any security despite multiple break-ins & threatening messages & sabotage that could have burned down the house & killed them?!?The house is HUGE & remarkable in that it has stairs all the way down to the street & there's a real ADT security sign in the side yard.Neighbors are a bunch of snobs that no one with any self esteem would put up with. Seriously they're so stuck up it's cartoonish. I have to wonder what the actors thought about this.On the positive side, the actors are all beautiful & their costumes are equally stunning.

Ridiculous throughout the entire movie; vague spoilers

The main protagonist is a nitwit and is so incredibly annoying at every step of the way. It was apparent not even 20 minutes in who the killer was yet Molly allows herself to be manipulated and misled repeatedly. She believes over privileged snobs to whom lies and deceit are a way of life, but chooses to disbelieve her own daughter and blame her for something that is totally out of character for her daughter to do.It is obvious on multiple occasions that someone had been in the house yet at first she doesn't even tell her husband. And blames her daughter after refusing to believe her. How do you go from having a super responsible and mature daughter to suddenly treating her like a 5 year old? Especially after you already know someone doesn't want your family in the house.How do you move into a mansion yet walk around in Mom jeans and tennis shoes, and to the country club at that? Nobody is that clueless. Who moves into that type of neighborhood and thinks that homemade cookies for your neighbor (the same neighbor who snubbed you when you first got there) is going to make you friends? Girlfriend is delulu.The husband is just a puppet and doesn't seem like his role is fully integrated into the story. It's like he's just a prop for the unbelievable protagonist. Their son is almost never seen. The daughter goes from a mature and responsible go-getter in shill and wanting to do her part to helping the family to being distrusted by her Mom and after that begins skipping class and hanging out with the son of her Mom's main tormentor? Personality whiplash for sure.How do you not have a security system? How do you not change locks, especially after the first incident when first touring the house and you both even agreed locks need to be changed? How do you repeatedly just walk around in the dark with your mouth hanging open, investigating intruders on your own, without alerting anyone else in the family? It is super annoying to see the same tropey gimmick throughout with no reward for the viewer.The setting and overall premise earned 4 stars because I'm a sucker for spooky mansion murder mysteries, but this was campy but not done well enough to be enjoyable campy; it was tryng to be hallmark drama mystery but was bad even for hallmark. I mean hallmark movies have their own vibe for sure but this one fell short of that bar too.I was disappointed because it had promise but a clueless female protagonist is always a turnoff for me. Why is this so overdone?

A big house, beautiful women and intrigue

Photographer Molly inherits her estranged father's large house. Together with her family, she moves into the house, which is located in an expensive neighborhood. Molly and her family try to fit in with the neighborhood's lavish lifestyle. Which is an arduous task for them, especially with snooty neighbours who wanted the house Molly lives in. Then there is a sudden break-in and a menacing warning message written on the wall as well as a death of a lawyer who was about to tell Molly something important about his murder. Who wants Molly and her family gone?Slow moving, yet not a bad thriller that touches upon class snobbery as well as delivering a thriller-whodunnit element. The lead actress who plays Molly is competent, however her husband is a bit of a plank in terms of reacting to the escalating troubles occurring.
