But a bad delivery of it with poor acting, equally poor writing/directing just took the life out of this movie. There were plenty of face palming scenarios that had me thinking this should have been a comedy, but it was just bad everything about this project.
I gave it a two rating to match the sophomoric effort put forth to make this mess. Bad sound editing, bad lighting, and the actors were just bad period. It's a shame that a movie with such a powerful message could get it so wrong in the delivery. The sets didn't look lived in and the down ward spiral of the abusive husband was a cardboard cut-out stereotype.
I almost gave this a slight pass when the ending revealed that this was from the perspective of the daughter and her first stab at writing about her experience with domestic violence.
