Imperdonable

When this film dropped on Netflix, I was puzzled. It sounded so familiar, yet, I was sure I hadn't seen it. I puzzled over this for a couple of weeks and then began cycling through the reviews I'd posted. Then I saw it, this was originally a three part British television series, THE UNFORGIVEN, which I had given a 9 (superb) out of 10, written by the great Sally Wainwright and starring the brilliant Suranne Jones. Then I hesitated, as a fan of Sandra Bullock (by the way, kudos to her for getting the American rights to this story), I was intrigued, but I knew the ending, was it worthy of this new look? Could it possibly live up to the original? So, with that in mind, I think you might understand my verdict. If you haven't seen the British original, watch this. It is a fascinating concept and Bullock loaded it with A list actors. Of course, her own talent was in full display, here. If you do know the original, move on, there is nothing to see here that wouldn't suffer by comparison. I give this film a 7 (good) out of 10. {Drama}

Sandra Bullock has incredible acting chops. She really knows how to draw out emotions from the viewer with her subtle facial nuisances and body language. She just doesn't read out lines from the script; She breaths life into them. She gives her characters dimension. Even though this is a television movie, this is one of her best acting roles. I lovely story of sacrifice and focusing on what is important to family. She is a strong person who stands tall despite condemnation from society's judgement.

I was emotionally invested in this film, which delivered in all the feels. The characters were incredibly well acted and with depth that drew you into the storyline. Well made and unexpected.

She does a great job looking like a tough criminal, reminds me of Monster with Therron. Believable in the part. The great reveal and twist leave you stunned. The whole thing is well done. The dude in a wig at the half-way house was unnecessary work moment that distracted from the whole movie. The end will leave you in tears. This is not for the kids. Some language and situations that are rough. Overall a great ride.

I liked "The Unforgivable" (2021) for its good story and good acting. It was a bit predictable yes, and a bit manipulative story, but at the end of the day this was a good movie.

Sandra Bullock was very good in this film. I quickly believed to her character and started rooting for her. And like i said the story turned out to be not as original as maybe it was intended - at least for me personally, i did enjoy this movie.

Overall, at running time almost 2 hours "The Unforgivable" was superbly paced - i wasn't bored for moment and good story, solid directing, writing, and very good acting by its lead kept me invested in this film till the very end.
