SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
