Edge of your seat suspense, not for the faint hearted.

Rating: 10/10 (17 April 2004)

I really like a film when I don't know what will happen from one minute to the next. This was one of them. While this film could be classified as science fiction it is like the original Star Trek, having more to do with social commentary than science. The film is rated R, for violence, but I think it is a good thing for teen-agers to see so that they can have a better awareness of abuse and its effects. Parts of the movie were very violent, and had serious flashbacks for my friends who have suffered from child abuse, and is not for the faint hearted. My teen-age sons liked the movie very much, but weren't particular satisfied about the ending, nor was I, but this gives even more food for thought.
