Dark horse candidate for Awards season?


Like Best Actor for John Cho or Best Original Screenplay?

reply

no chance for acting, screenplay has a chance, but may be doubtful unless the Studio actually campaigns for it

reply

LOL!

Why?

reply

Because it falls apart if you think about it too closely.

WHY would she use an ex-con she had a connection with?
Who was running the Livestream of the memorial service?
WHY would they use a picture of the same model as the other streaming video/chat site?
How do they figure the kid would escape prosecution To The Fullest, even though the Mom tried to take responsibility? (He wouldn't)
How on earth would a team of investigators miss a car following hers onto the highway? (They woudn't)
Etc, etc. . .

This was almost SUCH a great movie. . .

reply

I hope so. It deserves serious Oscar consideration.
