I liked this movie for two main reasons: I like both Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Candace Cameron. Not that this script or plot is original, but I still enjoyed it. What can I say? TV movies are my guilty pleasure. I think although these two stars may have reasonably "fizzled out" and you never hear from them anymore, they're still young and talented regardless of what anyone says. I think they both display wonderful acting in this flick. Candace as a rape victim and Mark as an unbelievably great bad guy. Somehow I never expected "Preppie" to take on this role lol. Never the less, if it's on one night and you're in the mood for a something dealing with this subject, definitely check it out. It won't be the most impressive film you've ever seen (but are any TV movies anyways) but it'll help pass the time and more than likely keep you entertained.
This movie is great. Although I wouldn't call it original. Movies like this have been made for years. But this is still different. I can't exactly put my finger on what it is that makes it so different. It could be the amazingly talented cast members. I can't say. Candace Cameron Bure plays the part as the young student Melissa perfect. Mark-Paul Gosselaar plays his part as Scott Baker so good that you actually hate him. I hope that the guys who sees this movie will understand what rape can do to a girl and that if she says no she means it. And I hope that the girls will take better care of them self after watching this movie.
"She Cried No" AKA "Freshman Fall,is a pretty good TV movie,but it is pretty generic for the genre.it doesn't stand out or anything,but it is well made.the acting performances are pretty good and the characters are pretty believable.the one thing that does set this movie apart would be the ending,which is unexpected and unconventional for this type of movie,at least in my experience.it's nice to see a movie that doesn't cop out in the end.it's also nice to see a strong female character.the movie is certainly watchable and well paced,though there isn't really a lot of tension.still,it's a decent way to spend 90 minutes.i give "She Cried No"a 7/10
Recently discovered a ton of trashy made-for-TV movies on Prime, and I am in Heaven. This film stars a lot of "it" people from the 90s, which is a definite win.
It's completely unoriginal but you know what? We're still having conversations about consent today. We are still living a trope where no one believes the victim, where she (because the victim is usually a woman) is afraid to speak, and everyone sides with the perpetrator while the victim is the one on trial.
Still.
With regards to the film, the leads play their parts well, showing their acting range. Although we remember Candace Cameron Bure and Mark-Paul Gosselaar as fun, cute, sweet characters, they both come out of these roles to portray real people with very real issues which cannot be resolved neatly within half an hour. Credit where credit's due, they do an amazing job.

Though the ending was a little sudden, the movie overall is very entertaining. The focus is, of course, the very serious topic of rape -- why it happens, how to recognize it, and how to deal with it. But what really makes this movie stand out from its genre is the abundance of early-90s preteen television stars. You have Candace Cameron (or DJ Tanner) from "Full House," Mark-Paul Gosselaar (or Zack Morris) from "Saved by the Bell," Jenna Von Oy (or Six LeMeure) from "Blossom," and Nikki Cox (or Tiffany) from "Unhappily Ever After." The reunion of the now-grown-up stars is a reason alone to see this movie. Plus, they pretty much all play characters that are the complete opposite of the roles they're famous for -- which has to make any nostalgic 90s tv fan smile!

- GoofsAt the frat party where Jordan is carried unconscious up the stairs, the song that is playing is "The Macarena". However, later in the film, as Melissa is reviewing the video tape footage of the party, and that same sequence is shown again, a different song is playing.
