Bad ending

Rating: 7/10 (2 August 2009)

I thought the movie was decent, and quite entertaining. However, the end was disappointing and unrealistic. A girl who has just been put through an ordeal like this one would not act, or interact with anyone in the same manner that she did before. First of all, her friend is dead... and yet she seems as happy-go-lucky as ever! This may be a minor detail, but I thought they could have brought out some of the after effects better than they did.I think this movie could have been more of a wake up call to viewers (it still was) about the workings of the sex trade. Secondly, when she runs to embrace her mother with the same big, childlike grin on her face it makes you stop for a minute and wonder if this is seriously how they are going to end the movie! Overall a good watch, but it could have made a bigger and more realistic impact.
