I get the feeling that somewhere there's someone waiting to explain, in detail, that this is how victims of domestic violence and violent trauma evolve, at least some of the time. And if this film were presented as a dramatization, then fine. As a film, though, it's slow. And just when we get to the scene where the final confrontation should occur our heroine Sadie hesitates, because, one might guess, she really just needs to be beaten one last time before she can pull the metaphorical trigger and deliver vigilante justice to her abuser.

So then another 15, 20 minutes and when the moment for justice arrives we're deprived of seeing exactly how Sadie overcomes the disadvantages of size and weight, and having a broken arm, to get her abuser into a position where she can, well . . . do what she needs to do.

And, ok, fine. The film doesn't want to indulge in gratuitous violence. But, you know, a film is a film and it needs to entertain and that's where this film falls short.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While the movie talks about serious things that should be talked about and are quite important and makes you think, the story itself and how it is portrayed is really quite boring. I mean most of the movie is just showing characters doing with just quiet background sounds, like in silence. And it is quite predictable what will happen at the end - that she will take revenge and also quite easy to guess that she is helping others because of being hurt before. I mean I did not expect action movie really, it is more drama, but still, you can watch it lets say if you have subtitles with 4x speed and wont miss anything. Or just fast forwarding through also doubt would miss much.… Expand
