Then again this one tries quite hard and some might give it points for having a female lead and taking things to a certain level. On the other hand there are also many cliches served, which may not play that well with some viewers (especially those who like to watch quite a lot of movies).
There are a few things that will make you cringe and there are quite a few coincidences that help move the story along. If you can dig them/allow them to happen, you will be able to be entertained by the movie. If not ... well, you already know the answer as you will know the outcome of this

The plot is pretty straightforward, it has some clever twists but nothing ground breaking. The unshakable tension is impressive, maintaining a genuine feeling of suspense and unease from beginning to end. Sarah Bolger's performance is fantastic, she delivers a very human character that you can really feel is tearing apart at the seams. To move the plot forward, they rely on several overly convenient and unbelievable coincidences, and it kinda takes you out of things sometimes. Otherwise, it's an easy watch, if you consider watching a women go through horrible things for 90 minutes to be easy to watch.
When I first came across this movie, I never expected much, but what a movie it turned out to be.
The performance of Sarah Bolger was outstanding! The plot was great, it kept me on my toes since its start till the very end, specially the last 15 minutes; they were mind blowing.
Watch it now! You'll never regret.
An engaging and entertaining movie, but not for the squeamish. The storyline effectively combines elements of social realism, thriller/suspense, gruesome black comedy and a bit of kinky humour. Technically very high standard (even though apparently made on a low budget) with a solid cast. But it's worth watching the movie for Sarah Bolger's great performance alone.
I really enjoyed it the acting from the main character was excellent the story line good and her treatment by the police as well as by social services in my experience incredibly accurate ! Definitely worth a watch
