I went to see this movie and although the movie was interesting, I guess that I expected some John Grisham style creative licensing. The suspence was lacking and at times somewhat inappropriate. The lagging wait for the evidence box is a prime example. That scene could have been punched up a few notches to give the audience something to chew on as the end result of the story was much publicized. I am all for honesty in movies but I do like to be entertained in the end and as moving as this movie was, I did find that my thumbs twittling offered me more action that Hillary Swank did.

A true story of determination, courage and belief. Ms. Swank is exceptional but even more so is the real woman she plays. A tough story to portray on-screen but the writers and director pull it off.
