Oh boy this is really gonna piss off all the preppy rapists of society, I forecast many downvotes and hate posts.

The tragedy of a terrible movie like this is that there was actually an interesting, complex, compelling story buried under all the bad acting and bad writing. I like Kunis but she doesn't have the dramatic chops to play a role like this that requires the lead to make an unlikable character compelling. This movie needed an actor like Jessica Chastain who has made this sort of role her bread and butter lately. Plus a FAR better script.

I'm very confused by all these comments referring to Mila Kunis' character as "unlikable" and a "terrible person"? Did we watch the same movie? I don't think the intention was for Mila's character to be terrible or unlikable. Wrongfully judged? Sure. Misunderstood? Absolutely. But unlikable? Nah. In my opinion, this is a somewhat realistic portrayal of trauma survivors. Often, we don't truly understand why people act or react the way they do, until we delve deeper into their experiences. Sometimes, there is a haunting aura that surrounds trauma survivors. You can sense it. It's almost tangible. However, there are a lot of survivors who are experts at surpressing their pain. They've been shaped that way. It's necessary for their emotional survival. This movie touched on that. Not all trauma survivors are engulfed by an obvious haunting aura. But the memories never leave. The memories tend to surface, even if just for a second. There are scenes where you catch a glimpse of that ugly beast rearing its head. For example, in an intimate scene where the lead's fiance comments on her aggressive tendencies in the bedroom. That is a psychologically common practice for assault survivors. They will often 'overcompensate', for lack of a better word. Their aggression is an attempt to regain control... control that they once lost in a previous encounter. They may be overtly aggressive to avoid being in another compromising position where they lose their power. It's as if every time they engage in intamacy, it's now on their terms, where they compete for power rather than just relinquish it. The scene where the younger lead character apologizes to the boy who assaulted her. That is another common psychological practice for survivors. They try to rationalize their abuser's action. It helps survivors feel like they weren't dehumanized. Instead, they chalk it up to a mistake or unclear communication. Maybe they didn't mean to hurt me? Was it a mistake? Also, what if no one believes me? Maybe it's safer to stay quiet and internalize it. I really appreciated those little subleties in the script. I feel this movie was greatly misunderstood. It was a rollercoaster of emotions. I enjoyed it.

A crime drama about compelling and topical subjects such as rape and guilt. It's quite hard to watch in certain scenes and they really delve into the aftermath of being a victim of rape (also some school shootouts). Mila Kunis did a great job and it was nice seeing Connie Britton. The movie feels overlong but I have to say every scene was necessary to get the characters where they need to be. This would of been better as a mini series I think the pacing was just kinda off and everything is jam-packed.
