Title: Well Acted But Hardly A Classic
Review: I found the other reviews very interesting. Yes, the movie is very well acted, which is the only reason I gave it 2 stars but frankly the abuse was so horrific I found the movie barely watchable.I admit that when watching a movie I look for something to entertain & escape into. If I want reality, I'll watch CNN. For that reason, while I know child abuse exists & think it needs to be acknowledged to end it, I don't really want to watch someone hurt children (& animals). Maybe part of the reason I had such a problem with this movie was the fact that everyone talks about what a great children's movie this is. It's only appropriate if your idea of a children's movie is "Friday the 13th". The violence is WAY too intense to let children watch.
Is the review positive or negative?
