Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

cfhtaiji I wanted to offer this review because, as a self-defense teacher and as a film afficianado, I feel I am compelled to give my take on it. The importance of this movie is clear - to let people know how crazy the world can be, how fear overrides a lot of your decision-making, and to tell the unique story of Elizabeth Smart. This movie was done well in terms of acting with the two leads looking almost identically to the actual people. Undoubtedly you'll read in these reviews that viewers had problems with one thing - the clips of the actual Elizabeth Smart speaking about the experience during particular harrowing scenes. The problem is that it comes across as cheesy, stops the story cold, and seems like she is trying to convince the viewer that what she did was the ONLY thing that she could have done. I didn't personally think harshly on this, however I didn't care how it interrupted the story and flow of the film. If I were the one making this, I would have added her remarks (and even interviews with her family and past footage) at the end. While the movie, which is good for a Lifetime movie, follows Elizabeth at every moment, it would have been nice to see to what extend the rest of the world was invested in finding her. Movies like this about survival and perseverance should be made and certainly seen.

pgooden As self serving as anything could get ES narrates her captivity with all the emotion of a pair of dice and this teen now has the expertise to be an Exec producer. It really makes one wonder how much of her captivity was true.
