Nonureva Really Surprised!

ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

A_Gonzalez22 This movie was OK for the most part. Not a big fan of Candace Cameron but I do like Savage. The only reason why I saw this movie was because of a lesson in health class (yes im a teenager) on relationship abuse, so I really appreciate a movie over some notes or worksheets. But most importantly this movie sends a very important message about abusive relationships, don't ask for help or try to escape when it's too late, get help immediately.Candace Cameron (I forget her characters name i thinks it's Stacy) is surprised to find that one of the most athletic and popular boys in school, bobby, has a crush on her. They go out and the relationship grows more serious to the point where the two have sex (where bobby forced her to by saying it proves her love for him). The girl then finds herself a victim of abuse when bobby hits her for talking to other guys, not doing the things he asks her to do (because she must obey him). When she finally has the courage to leave him, bobby snaps. He finds a quiet place by a lake at night and stabs the main character until death. Her body is found and Bobby's friend who was there that night confesses that bobby was the one to kill her, wrap her body and throw her body into the lake. Bobby is sent to prison for life and justice is served. A pretty OK movie, good lesson though. I give it a 6.5/10

joebjackson Now don't get me wrong, it is horrible when abuse like this happens in the real world. Abuse is no doubt a subject that should be dealt with care...this movie does not to a good job of that. First off, starting the movie with the revelation is a bad idea and the film has no surprises after, we know whats going to happen, it all depends on how and when. The good: fred and Candice held up well in the acting department for the most part. It is trying to deal with a serious issueThe bad: Bobby is as subtle as a gun to the face! He is always acting creepy, cruel or psycho even in scenes where he should not be. Now of course I can forgive that so long as we have a smart sympathetic lead...Stacy is horribly annoying! She is always complaining about the stuff she should not be, and keeps going back to bobby despite clear evidence he is insane. She goes back not once or twice like any believable person, but 7 times!!! And only during the sixth does she dump him, only to go back to him, calling him a friend!!! And after that...slaps her and then let's him drive her home!!! Actually whenever someone questions Stacy about bobby she always whines and says "you're just jealous because you can't find love!!!". What a horrible character! This is what kills the movie! Stacy is such a dumb idiot! If this really is based on a true story than I sincerely hope that the real person was not like this! Bye is clearly a horrible person and actual physical evidence of abuse Is on her body, but noooo!That aspect is really the only reason the movie get praised, it's based on a true story! If it was not than it would be shunned! The movie feels like one of those horrible teen dramas that use factors like this for a free pass. However, things like those are exploitive of the subject. Films like this should explore not exploit! I have no doubt a lot of the movie was made up and I pray to god that is the case.

redrain26 This movie is A great movie to show to teenage girls and women in general some people think the have no where to turn like Stacy did and when she did break free there really was know one to catch her abuse is real if you never experience it you wouldn't know how to react toward a person in it , this movie comes on DVD now. it funny I saw it on Cbs I could believe it right away when i saw the cover i remember it one of those movies that stays with you because the guy is so evil how he just put that poor girl through hell , this is a true life story and I feel a great deal for that poor girls family well there i said my peace so rent it .

Faith Vanderpool No one would tell was one of the best movies iv'e seen and it is based on a true story I think a lot of people would like it I just wish they would put it on DVD so i can buy it.Give it a try and watch the movie I can almost guarantee you will like it a lot because i know a lot of people that watched it and they loved it so much they wanted to buy it but they couldn't find out where not everyone is rich and has a credit card and the internet is the only place you can buy it at. so they should put it out for sale in stores.if someone knows anything about where to get it besides the internet please make some suggestions about it would help me out a lot i love that movie so much.
