Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Hated this movie yet it will peak your interest to see where these people are going to end up .... the acting was very good but it was to drawn out and at some points you did feel a little sorry for the patrick wilson charcter .... boy 14 year old thoughts have really changed whould i recommend this movie ...... no unless there is nothing else to watch kinda a let downh and a waste of time......

It has a somewhat promising start, but the dwindle down into sadistic torture happened too quickly and without enough exposition to justify it. Essentially, it ends up just looking like To Catch a Predator but instead of the cops being called, the predator is castrated immediately. There is simply not enough information given to make you hate what you are told to think is a sick pedophile, nor is there enough information to make you feel that Hayley is justified in her actions. The ending was just weird, and I still don't quite get why Janelle was even a thing.This movie was NOT thrilling and the castration scene was weak. I didn't need to see the castration play-by-play, but there are plenty of ways to make a gruesome scene still seem gruesome even if it occurs off-screen. The girl is also stupid and should've done something to ensure that he could not move. As tiny as she was, if he was able to get the upper-hand for even a second, that would've been the end for her.I also don't get why Sandra Oh's name is presented like she was relevant. She was on screen for a grand total of 5 minutes.

First of all it's just not a big-one-script at all so if you attend to forget about the technical directing thing and stick to the plot so you can enjoy it, You get disappointed. The worst is the "form" of it which included directing, filming, sound, etc. All these unprofessional camera angles and close shots and add those coloring and filters which helping of course to transfer the atmosphere but yet completely unnecessary or, could have done it in a better way, and weak sound effects and soundtrack that sometimes in the movie you feel the lack of it, All gathered to give you a bad experience you could have on a movie. Don't wanna talk about the plot, it already has been explained in the plot twist! and that's all. If it doesn't motivate you enough to watch it and look for a better directing in this, well you get nothing.

one of films who you admire after the final credits. because it seems be perfect. the clash between Ellen Page and Patrick Wilson, the psychological tension, the use of camera, the ambiguity of end, the slow development of story, the theme who remains delicate and provocative, in same measure. in many senses, an old fashion film because it remind the rules of classic thriller. and it gives , in wise way, the geography of each side of a complex case. it is one of films who are far to be comfortable and this is its basic virtue. it is a film who explores yourself in not the most delicate manner. and its powerful impact to the viewer has as source the status of slice from life. because it is a warning. more convincing, cold and, maybe, useful, than many posters or conferences, remembering the thin line between intentions, gestures , innocence and its appearances and need of justice.
