The movie started out really awesome and the concept was amazing but things got bad pretty quick. Jaime Murray was fantastic!!!! But the girl who played Noa had this constant smirk/grin on her face like she was about to burst out laughing at any moment and was trying to restrain herself from doing so........just BAD acting on her part. Towards the end it gave us a cheap Sci-Fi feel. Another one of those movies that could have been REALLY good if ONLY someone had thought it through and cast a good actress for the lead instead of someone who obviously did not know how to act......who auditioned her?????

Awesome Start
Anyone who gave this movie more than 2 stars, worked on the film
It was so stupid. The dialog was hilariously atrocious. You know that girl that really likes horses, adult coloring books, The Labyrinth, and considers herself a writer? She wrote this movie.
The Nanny: What a shame
The Nanny was a pick and mix movie for me, I went in knowing nothing but was happy to see Jaime Murrays name pop up on the opening credits. I would class her as one of my favourite actresses and just don't think she gets the recognition she deserves.
Here in The Nanny she puts in a career best performance, but in the end it simply didn't matter.
The Nanny tells the story of a single mother who (Shocker) finds herself needing a nanny for her two children. In comes Ms Murray who is a mysterious woman that everyone deems perfect for the job, except the daughter.
Truth be told the first half of The Nanny is excellent, it's so well crafted, beautifully shot and gripping. Then the second half comes and it all falls apart, I mean really badly! A combination of silliness, poor sfx and rushed concepts ruin what was primed and ready to be an excellent film.
Part horror, part fantasy this dark fairytale also stars Nicholas "Xander from Buffy" Brendon and Schuyler "Country Singer" Fisk. It's heartbreaking to me when a film with such potential falls apart as badly as this did. I would love to see someone reshoot/rewrite the second half as it has unlimited potential!
Sadly it's potential squandered, though Murray is excellent and the first half is very enjoyable the rest of the film is an utter mess.
The Good:
First half
Jaime Murray
Masterfully shot
The Bad:
Second half
Some goofy sfx
Lots of unanswered questions
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Jaime Murray seems to connect herself to flawed movies
It's always nice to see Nicholas Brendon take time out of his busy schedule of prison to make movies
