My first time I write a review The movie in itself is 3/5. Actors and Photography is more like 4/5 and script/production 2/5.
For a movie that is about rape and revenge, it doesn't seem it gives enough respect to the reality of the issue, and I'm not talking about that it has to be 100% accurate, but when there are obvious plots and very unrealistic scenes, it ruins the entire buildup of hope and excitement you get when you want the lead actor to get her revenge and succeed at it.
At the end of the movie you will get the feeling everything is rushed and they ran out of ideas on how to end it, so without spoiling it, I will just say that the whole buildup just to get to a dumb unrealistic ending, is very frustrating. Being that the movie is only about one and a half hour long, it does suggest they either ran out of budget or ideas or had to end it quickly. I wouldn't recommend watching this movie for entertainment purposes, but it's worth a watch.. if you have the time and don't mind a few unrealistic slip ups *WARNING SPOLERS AHEAD* 1. This first point, might be excused to her being drugged, but still I find it weird that the first thing she does when she realizes she's been raped and she's at an unknown place, is to want to take a shower. Wouldn't getting out of there be number one? Or calling the cops or hospital? You're definitively not thinking of showering in that same place where everything happened, even though I understand the urge to clean yourself from what happened... but still 2. When she's being asked questions by the black lady/cop about who had access to her drinks and so forth, her roommate shows up and the lady cop says it's OK she should go home, they can have the Q&A later.. (when her memory isn't that fresh anymore ) 3. NOBODY, literally NOBODY is checking out the NetCar driver who took her request and said that she never showed up.. even though it is very unlikely that a legitimate NetCar driver would rape his own clients, IT HAS TO BE REVIEWED.. just normal protocol! 4. The next day her best friend is like 'you not going to school today?' Seriously? Just got raped! And then asks.. 'want me to stay here with you?' wow.. what a friend! 5. The picture that was drawn from the memory of the Hotel Manager/Dude, is never compared to the original NetCar's driver that took her request, but this just goes back to point 3, I guess it's a non-issue, but still 6. So after being raped and trying out the new net car job you pick up two thugs that you were about to throw out of your car because they were calling you babe /etc and then you're surprised that they put a gun to your head and make you drive their shot friend around? 7. Another unrealistic scene: the cops show up to the hotel rooms door where they followed the rapist with his new victim and are being told there is nobody else in the room so they leave! Why go there in the first place? 8. Black lady cop meets with the girls afterward.. and keeps saying that the drawing of the rapist provided by the Hotel Manager is nothing like the guy they are accusing.. BUT it's irrelevant if they're seeing that it's the same guy going to the same hotel room doing the same scheme it's VERY obvious that they must know each other so it doesn't matter what the picture looks like.
9. Then later on... how is it possible that her friend sitting with her in the car after witnessing what this guy just did (notice: the guy who's driving a car like the NetCar is not on the GPS so it's not legitimate and he drove his victim to the same hotel where the other guy raped your best friend) how does she dare to say "this is not our guy" this is the most biggest illogical part of the entire movie 10. Another huge illogical step in this whole movie is when they followed the rapist and they are witnessing when he's getting the drugged victim into the hotel room and out of the hotel room.. nobody's filming anything! So they can't use the cameras on their phones to film this guy doing the crime? 11. So the rapist shows up on her doorstep, she doesn't use the pepper spray she doesn't take out her phone and films and doesn't call the cops.. NOTHING Wow! 12. When you think the dumbest parts of the movie have already happened then THIS happens! You see, their 'big plan' is to go back to the same nightclub and 'catch the rapist in the act' after this guy has already been called in for questioning by police, he KNOWS they are investigating him..
13. She pepper-sprays the guy when he's holding a gun!!!! And he doesn't shoot.
14. Now that the movie has ended, how will it continue? It doesn't make any sense what are they going to charge the two guys with being two guys in a hotel room with a big baby head mask.. wow.. just wow! Last thoughts This movie could have been a really good movie. It could have been inspirational. Imagine all those unrealistic scenes were just cut out or corrected and that the end had actually something to do WITH THE BROKEN CONDOM and that the DNA sample found, matched the rapists DNA! Or even better.. have the two thugs beat the crap out of these guys maybe even cut off their jingle bells.. I don't know.. so many ways of ending this movie in a better way.
I hope my first review was helpful, please criticize, constructively though ;)
