Yara

Ok its not a masterpiece,but its very engrossing..Keeps you hooked and the best part is that its a true story..A must watch for all crime thriller watchers.

"Yara" is a Drama - Thriller movie in which we follow the true story of a mysterious missing 13-year-old. This case was investigated by a prosecutor who did not lose her faith and tried very hard to solve the mystery behind it.

I liked this movie very much because it was based on a real case, it had an interesting plot that contained plenty of suspense and mystery, something that made it even more interesting. The direction which was made by Marco Tullio Giordana was very good and he did an excellent job on the way he presented the plot behind the missing person along with the key characters of the movie. The interpretations of Isabella Ragonese who played as Letizia Ruggeri, Thomas Trabacchi who played as Maresciallo Garro and Miro Landoni who played as Cancelliere Edoardo Carlini were very good. In conclusion, I have to say that "Yara" is an interesting thriller movie and I recommend you to watch it because I am sure that will leave you speechless.

For all intents and purposes, this is a cold case but prosecutor Letizia Ruggeri's decision to embark on reverse investigation focusing on DNA analysis backed up by a database of DNA samples was crucial to unmasking the killer. As the film shows, it's a slow, painstaking process but, in the end, it yielded a perfect match.

It's not all science; otherwise, it could be boring. There's genuine drama as well focusing on the family's deep grief and Ruggeri's steely determination to catch the criminal.

This film is more about Ruggeri as investigator than about the victim or her grieving family but it's compelling nonetheless. The director succeeds in re-constructing a true story that doesn't sound like a documentary. Isabella Ragonese effectively portrays her role as the crusading prosecutor. A fitting message from her is, a quitter never wins.

Watch this film. It's uplifting.

As a crime fanatic this movie was good. We get to learn about this innocence 13 year old girl Yara who is into sports, and usually walks home after she is done at her local gym, not far from her home. But tragedy hits the town when she disappears and her body is found. Who would do such a cruel thing to a child?

The detective was the star of the show and without her resolve this case would have never been solved.

An above average movie with competent performances by everyone. However it would have been better if it was edited a bit more tightly thus reducing its length by 10-15 minutes. If you enjoy watching true stories involving the justice system,then you should not miss this film 6/10.
