I don't mind having watched a film and not liking it. That happens. But there are a few films I wish I'd rather not have watched. This is one of them. The film gets under your skin to the point where it becomes uncomfortable (if not unbearable) to watch. The film is carried by two characters only, played by Patrick Wilson and Ellen Page, and they do it exceptionally well - especially Ellen Page. This was a very different set-up where the pedophile becomes the victim. It was even more tense than a gory horror film.

The rating listed here is mighty generous in my honest opinion. I didn't care too much for how this story was put together. It seemed like it came from a person with many issues regarding men. In today's world of massive sexual assault accusations this kind of flick is the kind of thing that adds fuel to a fire that's already out of control.I realize that I'm more than late with this review so I'll cut to the chase. The story is not believable where a grown man can't get lose from a knot tied by a little girl who supposed to have the personality of a woman who has lived the life of a hooker in her forties. What 32 year old man is going to lay that still while someone cuts off his testicles? OK so yes I realize that a person should have the ability to stretch the imagination a bit so that their mind can accept these things as a reality.I like the acting job done by Patrick Wilson and Ellen Page because lord knows they had to work hard to try and make this as believable as possible. Sandra Oh had the miserable job of playing Judy Tokuda, the nosy neighbor that is too dumb to see what is going on. She wasn't right for this part and you could see that on her face with each one of her inept parts.There are much better selections than this one to chose from when your scrolling through your favorite movie platforms. The ending really was flawed. I couldn't figure out why in the world would he succumb to the antics of a 14 year old twisted in the head little girl while I watched him jump off the roof of his own house with the noose around his neck if he was so innocent and I actually believed he was telling the truth. Before it goes off it shows her walking away with the red hoody on like she was little red riding hood. What a buzz kill!

This movie somehow preaches evil onto others, maybe torturing people to admit things they didn't do and then kill them. Never have I seen a movie where I wanted someone to die so badly. The whole thing made me sick. I do not know what the moral here is, but if someone gets a kick out of watching this, I feel sorry for them.

(Flash Review)This film is dark and uncomfortably aptly named. I was close to turning it off at a couple points but was too vested by that point. The basis of the movie is a supposedly mid-aged teenager sets out to teach an older man a lesson who tries to befriend a certain age of girl in chat rooms. That's about as PC as I can put it. There are really only two characters in the whole film who do a great job in acting out the tense situations. The production value, color usage and shot framing were wisely executed and the key scenes of the climax for the tension capture the psychological anguish rather than visually tossing it the viewer's face. I was a bit surprised by how easily the girl got the upper hand in situations that needed ample planning; potential plot holes if you look for them. It was a difficult watch also because the two characters are rotten people so no one really to root for….well, you kind of root for a bad guy as you slowly learn about him. Tense and dark if you want to go that route.
