A powerful Jodie Foster in this brutal story of rape
Great performances but it never had the impact that it clearly wanted to.
Great Crime Movie, touching and sad... Foster is brilliant!
Foster is heartbreaking as the victim of a gang rape, but the choice to keep the crime off-screen until the very end dilutes the horror.
a very rough ride of a film which takes you through a gritty event in very real circumstances. Jodie Foster is great
Powerful legal drama with superb acting especially Foster
Rough. Dark. Sickening rape victims were ever treated this way. Jodie Foster's performance amazing. Music a bit dramatic & 80s lighting eh
Ahead of its time on the discussion of rape. Everyone should see it
Very sad movie. Jodie Foster was amazing in her role.
Hard hitting courtroom drama with an infamously hard to watch scene, extremely dark in tone with some captivating performances
