Simply A Masterpiece

Not much to say about this movie other than it's very, very bad. They have really scraped the barrel in terms of actors.

We started this movie and it quickly made us feel very uneasy. We finally turned it off, wanting to watch something more uplifting. The next day I continued to watch the rest of the movie and am so glad I did. Yes the first half is very ugly and hard to even imagine however watching the last half shows you many great things about the strength we have and the will to survive. Most importantly people need to know this is happening here, to our children. We have to fight human trafficking with every thing we have.

This was a great topic to make a film about, and one would think with so many (15!) producers involved, they wouldn't have messed up the production.For starters, you don't hire Siddharth Kara, the author of one book (on the subject matter) with zero film experience to write the screenplay. He should have stayed on as only a producer but only to consult, and hired a professional screenwriter.Next, the directing was sub par... nice camera work but the actors, albeit C-grade, needed better direction so they wouldn't appear as if this was their first high school play. A few of the actors were decent, but I could see the lost potential to make their roles great from the lack of direction from novice director Will Wallace. Again, had a better director come on board, this film would have been great.Overall the story/premise needed to be shown to create awareness, Some parts are brutal, but it does get the message across.Would I see it again? No. Would I recommend it? Maybe to parents with young daughters.It's a 7/10 from me, primarily for the story that needed to be told.

This entire low budget 'important message' flick is nothing more than a feeble attempt by Judd to once again become relevant, by constantly bombarding the viewer with filth talk and naked unattractive and overweight twenty somethings the director tries to pass of as teens. The story line is dull and the NEVER-ENDING BORING TALKING makes you consider jumping out a window!While this big 'comeback' flick for Judd never even made it to video, I feel bad for the investors that were duped into supporting this garbage.Note to self: Ashley Judd, and any movie she is involved with, is total garbage and a waste of time.
