    Underrated Drama

    I think it's a good movie. Beautifully made. The color, the feel, the pace. It doesn't get boring. And it's emotionally touching. The leading actress is just great. And Lopez, considering the substance of her character that you come to realize later during the film, I think plays adequately, though people don't find her convincing. But, that's what she's supposed to be, cause she's a doer. She's the driving force, "the man" of this movie, while Viola is more of "a lady", more tender, empathetic and so on. So, I don't really understand, why people put Lopez down - she's done her part well.

    The story is interesting. Cause it's a story about ordinary people doing extraordinary things. No Jason Statham or Tom Cruise to fix the problem here. Simple, fragile mother gets to fix her life - bring murderers or her son to justice. To me it was just interesting to watch. While my wife's eyes were constantly wet. Thank to Viola's amazing performance, mainly.

    Review- No spoilers!

    Seen it when it premiered on Lifetime,was nice from the typical content. Decided to rewatch this,when it was put onto Netflix. Both leads blended nicely,into their given roles. Decently cast,acted & cinematography. Feel it's a movie,both men & Women can enjoy.

    Interesting film trailer didn't do it justice Nir the airbrushed poster

    Liked it well worth watching it. Critics were a bit harsh. Though Jennifer Lopez worked so well with Viola in their characterizations.

    Don't want to give anything away with its well crafted script twists and turns. Grief of a mother was so magnificently portrayed by many of the cast. Unfortunately something that we see so much of in the US murders not solved, racism within police, gang wars and victims - it was all there without beating the chest or imposing it. The script was not only well crafted the director controlled the passions. Well done everyone - yes there are weaknesses but not enough to warrant bypassing this film.

    Worth watching movie

    Nice movie. I won't give away any spoilers here, but there were a couple of nice turns with J Lo and what happened at the end with women's group and the cop. There were several other movies this reminded me of, but I won't tell because it could spoil it for you. The acting was nice and impressive. There were a few slow scenes and the women tracking down of some of the hoods was a little too easy, but overall it was worth watching.

    Lila And Eve.

    While this film won't win an Academy Award or any other glamorous award for that matter, it is a good film. The cast, for the most part, is what makes it as good as it is. The emotion and drama that's displayed by Viola Davis' character is flawless. Viola Davis, as usual, gives a wonderful performance in this film along side Jennifer Lopez. Although Jennifer Lopez's performance isn't as high caliber as Viola Davis' they both made a great pair in this film. Not anything different or original, this film is about two women who seek out and take revenge on the men who murdered their sons, it's that simple, or is it. Fairly written with some drama and a nice plot twist this film is enough to be enjoyed.
