The Unforgivable

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.

It wasn't groundbreaking but it was a solid drama, I think the last quater was a little daft but overall I thought it was decent

People are complaining about how are they supposed to feel empathy? You don't always have to. You can dislike the main leads character, although as the story goes on, you do realise the incident was more complex. Some of thr reviews feel lole they didn't watch it all. If you like slow burn dramas, I'd definitely give it a watch.

What annoys me the most on IMDb are the reviewers that rate movies the lowest possible. I get it that every now and then you stumble on a real stinker, I sure did, but to rate this one the lowest possible is just ridiculous. So that means this was the worst movie they watched in their life? Really? I guess those people must not watch a lot of movies then. Personally I watch on average two movies a day so without bragging I can say I watched thousands of movies in my life. The Unforgivable is certainly ranked in the better thousands, without question. Maybe the story unfolds a bit slow, and in my case was a bit predictable, but it still remains a good entertaining movie, with good actors, and a more than decent cinematography. The story is emotional, a good drama, with some crime elements that made it more than enjoyable to watch. It's certainly not a ten star movie but rating it the lowest is just too ridiculous for words. Those people should be banned from IMDb.

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.
