Finally an adult movie

Super subtle and intelligent file. Great acting as well as a compelling script. I should have bought it since I’ll want to watch it again. Not to be missed !!!!


Gripping and Intense

We loved this film, had us on the edge of our seat the entire time. The performances were astonishingly good and the writing was superb. Watching this was a great experience.


Thrilling

This film wounds the story tight like a drum, and demands a second viewing. Superb acting and airtight editing.


Subtitle Movie - Half the Movie is in French

Although iTunes says the Primary Language for this movie is English, and the trailer is in English, the reality is half of the movie is in French. Although the movie portrays the workings of a French courtroom - which is why it didnt get one star - I found the movie to be BORING. Weak plot, weak character development, it's not a thriller, just a boring French courtroom story. Don't waste your time.


The Message: Do not live in France?

The movie is brilliant and the actors as well. It moves slowly in order for us to be completely enthralled with how challenging it is; having ones’ private life now flung in public, and the insane levels of accusations and fabrications within a very perverse judicial system. I felt catapulted back into an era of the Inquisition, witch burning's and when misogyny reigned. The lead prosecutor—and actor so brilliant you want to smack him—portrayed his indignant prejudicial and biased indignation without shame. Only brilliant acting and directing would carry one through this very long movie. But—oh dear—if these are the ways of French courts, to which conjecture, assumptions and fabrication are allowed in court rooms, and the courts ignoring the psychological harm potentially done to minors. This movie should put a damper in tourism. I’ve certainly marked it off my bucket list. Truly archaic courtroom and misogynist ethics.
