A lot to like, as well as some things that weren't exactly necessary or believable. If there's one thing I can't stand in a movie it's characters behaving in ways that simply defy reason. There's a few of those in here but I managed to push through them and enjoy this film to a degree. A few supporting characters weren't fitting to their role at all, and even the leads were given circumstances that made no sense. But overall it's a unique glimpse into a drudging way to make a living in a tough neighborhood. The lead girl was easy to like and sympathize with. The lead was an interesting person, flawed but genuinely wanting to help. One neighbor and the babysitter were simply too annoying to garner any belief in what they were saying or doing. The bondage stuff didn't bother me but the way it was portrayed was just plain dumb. A good way to spend your time but ultimately there's nothing here that will linger or make you want to watch it again.
