I didn't have any expectations and didn't read the book, and the movie pleasantly surprised me. I kinda like slow linear movies about life, that aren't overloaded with plot twists. The main message is a little too much explained, but that's what almost all movies suffer from nowadays. The audience isn't trusted enough by film makers to make their own conclusions.
But other than that, it's a nice and sad story, beautiful picture, beautiful people and some good old sex.
Men would probably find it annoyingly one-sided, but if you're a woman, you will enjoy it.
Unless you had a DV episode in your life. Then it could be too triggering.

If this wasn't based on a true story, I'd give it 7 or 6. It is interesting because it is real. I like how well they casted Jo and Warren. Kelly is also very believable.
However, injecting Rebecca and Cam into the story just to show us some lesbian sex and then an indigenous drama was completely unnecessary. The story should be about Reena and her murderers, not about some made-up characters that fit into the agenda.
Same about making Dusty black, butchy and innocent. The real 'Dusty' was none of that.
I liked, however, that the producers didn't make the entire show about Reena's race. Everyone was portrait as a real person, with good and bad qualities, with mistakes and (mostly) remorses.
