I loved this movie so much that I have been trying to buy it since I saw it. I am in the middle of the book now. I could watch this movie 1000 times and not get bored. Good directing and casting!! I think anyone who sees it will come away with a feeling that will stay for days, maybe weeks!!
It's hard to believe an atrocity such as this occurred in the United States. The lack of punishment for the parents illustrates yet another breakdown of the system. My emotions swung between sadness and anger. This is something everyone should watch.
This movie should by no means be rated on it's entertainment value as some do as the true case is way too serious to consider for entertainment purposes.
I stumbled across it on a movie channel and just went along feeling more and more sad and frustrated over the total failure of the authorities to secure the interests of this poor, wretched human experiencing for 13 years a fate much worse than death and later being less than ideally where the therapists, teachers and researches take care of no. 1 first.
I don't know if anyone in America has learned anything from this case, but some historic words come into mind:
"Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
But is America really interested in helping any of these?
I missed a sharper critical profile in the movie on this aspect rather than letting everybody off easy.
The young actor did a tremendous job and can't be applauded enough.
I am not sure I want to recommend anyone seeing it, as it is way too sad. Maybe we are better off not knowing of the cruelty and stupidity some parents can subject their children to and easily get away with it.

I missed this film, when it was displayed at University by my' Psychology department, but as soon as I stumbled over it in our local Video Store, I rented it and quite honestly, I don't know what to tell you. I really believe, that I can't say this was a good film, because the story is just too sad and too real. What I can say though, is that this is an utmost interesting film, which displays what humans are capable of in a very professional way. I must say this, for I felt this was not so much a dramatized version of a true life event, but rather a documentary on a true life event. This is neither a tear jerker, nor a graphically violent film but maybe that it is also the reason it is twice as memorable as your average psychological drama. This film will leave you sitting shocked and numb in front of your TV.
8 out of 10 (for people who are really interested in the human psyche like psychology students)
7 out of 10 (for the average viewer)

we had to watch this film for a psychology assignment and all i can say is that it was really fascinating! the plot was fantastic, it was so sensitively written...in fact it could have been dramatised a lot more...some films over dramatise child abuse. the actors were fantastic, especially the actress who played Katie: she was a real star! this is a fantastic movie for a psychology student as it is such a scientifically based film. only the letter at the top of the review page proves this! this is a fantastic movie for anyone interested in how people work, and for anyone who likes films with a real story behind them. i strongly recommend this film!!!!
