A Disappointing Continuation
Lucia Ayala
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The problem I have with this movie is that the story is entirely one sided, presenting only the view of the prosecutor's team.And anyone over the age of 2 should know that there's always at least two sides to a story. It leaves me with the feeling that this was a rush job, more geared to capitalize on the immediate media frenzy to capture audience, than to present the truth; and that is very indefensible, as this film deals with a true story, not a fictional Hollywood script.For the love of God, didn't the producers of this film know that the victim as well as the accused were/are real people, some fighting for their very lives? Shouldn't they at least have tried to get a rounded version of the story down? Instead, they simple took the story provided by a man (Mignini) that has been proved since to be more than a little bit unhinged.It's a lot easier to get audience with story of sex, demonic rituals, violence and death, than it is with one of questionable law enforcement and plain lunatic characters.For shame....Art

This film was pretty well done. I do think they could have picked better people for some of the roles, but overall, good acting. Pretty good scripts and a good movie to sit down and engage yourself in. A good movie just to have on in the background while you're doing the dishes or cooking. This case is so fascinating to me, I really cannot say that it was a dull film. It was interesting the whole time and I felt I was part of the film. That I wasn't just watching, but I was connecting with Amanda Knox and feeling her pain. I cringe at some parts because they seem so painful to deal with. I give it a 7 because of these reasons, and because I know it could have been better.Kelsy

This movie pretends to be a true story but there a 5 things in it that are not only false, they are things could get the screenplay writer sued for libel. To avoid making this a spoiler, I can't go into detail. right now this case is under appeal, and most people who know about the case expect her to be acquitted. What happened was the case that prosecutor Mignini presented was a work of fiction. The reasons why Amanda Knox was convicted are secret, therefore we may never know the true story this movie was based on. The trial scenes were shot inside a real Italian court room, so I guess a deal was made with the producer where we will let you use a courtroom if you agree to insert these 5 things into your movie, and don't ask questions about it. This is too bad because there were many people who appear to have put in a lot of hard work to make this a good movie, and it probably won't ever be shown again because of the controversy. I hope that can re-edit this movie and add some new footage, and turn it into a comedy.

Imagine that you are charged with a crime in a foreign country. You are denied a lawyer. You are denied a translator. You are not declared a suspect but you are interrogated as one. You are interrogated by a team of cops meant to break down mafia suspects. You barely speak Italian. You are denied access to your family. You are in shock and you want to help. Your interrogation is not recorded. You are declared a murderer. Your words, which were never recorded, are used against you. There is no tape, there is no video. The cops who declare you a murderer have a big reason to declare so: they said the case was closed. They declared it to the media. The prosecutor announced it to the world...before the murder scene was analyzed by a crime lab. They paraded you through the streets with sirens blaring flashing the victory sign. They posted your photo on the wall as a most wanted criminal next to the worst murderers and criminals known. One person who was charged will be found with an alibi (Lumumba). Two people (Amanda and Raffaele) only have each other as an alibi and their computers are burned so there is no trace of it. One person (Guede) left hair, finger prints, blood, and DNA at the crime scene but it has not been analyzed by a crime lab. No one has identified that sole person who left the evidence at the crime scene and no one seems to care. The case is declared closed. You are placed in solitary confinement and denied your right to a lawyer, contact with your family, or a translator, or to contact your embassy. Next thing you know, you are a witch, a pervert, you have cold eyes, you are without a soul, you are a mastermind criminal, you are the personification of evil, you are the controller of men that you don't know, you are a hater, you are a liar, you are a sex maniac. No one who knows you will corroborate these "facts". There will be no way for you to escape your conviction because those who want you convicted have all the power. They will hide the evidence which your defense lawyers could easily use to get you off. A movie will be made during your trial which will be used to convince people of your guilt. You are screwed and it was great entertainment.... You are an American citizen in a foreign country, you are a child of parents who want to help you. You have no hope because the case has been closed.
