The movie was interesting, well acted and quite entertaining, Sure, it wasn't always believable and there were a few plot holes but it was overall a good movie.

An excellent, intelligent flick with great acting by Kate that highlights the loss of democracy in the war-mongering U.S.

This is quite a witty, thoughtful (if slow paced) drama.

Its an interesting story, although I did feel it was perhaps a little sentimental, not that the story didn't warrant it to a set extent but I felt it was overly cliched in one or two regards, with the columnist shown reading books to many children in a library setting - it felt a little too forced on some ocassions, with slow, weepy piano music played etc. Also, it may frustrate some that as a viewer we're kept in the dark about some of the finer details of what happened.

That aside, I thought the cast did well - indeed I did find myself wondering what I may do if I found myself in anywhere near a similar situation. This is mostly a moral, part court based drama - its not an action film but it seemed to me a fairly decent and compelling watch, which is somewhat memorable and there were some instances of witty dialogue, so I would recommend it on that basis.
