COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Good submitted by DL on June 21, 2017, 10:49am Strong leading lady who commands every situation she is in. She doesn't care what others think of her.

Fair to midling submitted by gardenfaerie on August 8, 2017, 7:18pm Maybe my expectations were too high based on some rave reviews i got, but i was so-so about the movie. It's not a waste of time, but I didn't loooove it.

DL you obviously did not get it even tho they explicitly said it, the leading lady was NOT strong, but SELFISH. submitted by Tassos on December 10, 2019, 8:26am She did not care one bit even about her own daughter, only about herself.

Austin is a great author, it is no accident her face is on the british money these days, BUT this poor movie is not up to the task. I watched it all, the end is totally forgettable, and many, including the lead actRESS (not actOR!) acted very poorly, many times reading her lines as if she was some dumb 11 year old in a school play.
