The movie itself apparently isn't sure the murders themselves are lurid enough. So it adds a few things that didn't happen, plus some 21st-century music. January 27, 2014 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

The movie ends on such a note as to cause the audience to wonder how long it will take before "A," of Pretty Little Liars fame, starts leaving Lizzie Borden an incriminating text or two. January 27, 2014 | Full Review…

It's slow and heavy-handed, tedious almost throughout. An average episode of Oxygen's Snapped isn't this dull, and has more interesting things to say about women who kill. January 27, 2014 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Lizzie Borden takes an ax to many assumptions -- including the one that Lifetime movies aren't worth watching. January 24, 2014 | Rating: A- | Full Review…

Lizzie comes across more as a whiny, moody teen than a psychotic murderess, and Ricci is much-too-attractive to play the dowdy, crazy-eyed Lizzie familiar from those faded black-and-white photos (just sayin'). January 21, 2014 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Lifetime's made-for-TV movie Lizzie Borden Took an Axe covers the events of the murder and ensuing trial, but doesn't really get any deeper into the crime than the schoolyard chant does. May 5, 2014 | Rating: 3/10 | Full Review…

Included are the trial and all the trimmings. What's missing is the horror of the event. Except for a few shots of dear old daddy's caved-in face, there's not much gore, even for a TV movie. May 4, 2014 | Rating: C | Full Review…

Lifetime has a knack for attracting top-tier talent for what often ends up being silly little movies, but Lizzie Borden seemed different -- everyone was having a lot of fun without getting too over-the-top campy. January 27, 2014 | Full Review…
