"Not easy or fun to watch, but real, moving, and tragic. Great and current cinema. Excellent in everything. Just watch it. It will not leave you indifferent. "

"I’m not going to lie, it was a struggle to get through this one and I bailed the first few times I tried watching it because I just couldn’t get into it. But everyone seems to adore this movie so curiosity got the best of me and I forced myself to finish it. I wasn’t moved emotionally when I was supposed to- even at the very end. But that conclusion was great! Glad I finally powered through it to find out the big reveal. Would never rewatch though. "
"Wow. This movie feels like you’re holding a breath in the entire time. It’s raw, realistic, and the twist at the end is pure insanity. This movie has a lot of intense scenes and shows the brutality of the world along with religion. This mother is endlessly strong and you not for one moment think she’s a character but instead sympathize with her. I would definitely recommend this movie but it definitely is hard to watch at many times! Not enough people talk about this movie!"
