I just finished it. It was a good movie, but Renne Zellweger never takes on the character of Judy Garland. She does her typical pucker lips duckface gestures, squinty eyes schtick and whines like a stereotypical NYC Jewish woman. Judy Garland didn't whine like that while talking and pucker her lips. Watch her old interviews on YouTube. She also didn't sing like Judy at all. It's a decent movie, but doesn't succeed as a biopic. It's a vanity project that's entertaining, but nothing deep or more. An unknown actress that could "wow" with an electrifying performance would have been a better choice. Now I see why it barely broke $35 million at the box office. The Golden Globe award wasn't deserved IMO

BORING! Worse than the actual 1st season. Cheesy, unrealistic, badly cast mess! The actress playing Heather Locklear looked like a teenager playing dress-up. Unattractive cast. Acting was wooden at best. This was a waste of time. Everybody knows the Melrose Place cast got along great, and there were no behind the scenes drama. So, why even make this? It was like, NOTHING! No purpose. MP is my fave prime time soap ever. This TV movie was like a Disney Channel movie. There was never a need to make this. I would suggest you avoid this mess. Melrose Place is iconic. This TV movie is painfully boring. Watching paint dry would be more exciting.

I really wanted to at least enjoy this movie. This sort of/VERY loose re- boot of the infamous 1984 slasher, "Silent Night, Deadly night". Even if it was a "so bad it's good" kind of a film would have been OK. But this ultra low-budget crap-fest is just plain awful. Lots of scenes are filmed with a shaky camera. Almost like a youtube video filmed by a crack-head. Really bad acting by every single actor here. Malcom McDowel is officially in the "bottom-feeder D list club." The FX are a joke. And the movie stumbles with plot holes galore with a terrible pace. Really boring. Real pointless. A waste of time for all. Avoid it. Don't be curious. It's just a piece of crap.
