Riveting, haunting and fast-paced -- this movie left me breathless and unnerved for hours after watching it. It's a sad and poignant story of the impossible job faced by police in South Central Los Angeles.
I loved this movie for the tear-jerker it is. Beautiful performances by all actors, especially Kate, the sick sister. Abigail Breslin is awesome and meant for much bigger things, she will be Meryl Streep of this generation. If you need a good cry, or simply enjoyed the book - go to see this beautiful execution of Jodi Piccoult's popular novel.
