at the coaxing of my wife and daughter, last night we went to see this film
It was IMO a good film, very suspenseful and Julia Roberts brought her "A" game as her acting was superb and I expect she will be nominated for Best Actress.
The ending will have you leaving the theater talking and guessing
My wife and daughter really liked the film and for me I enjoyed it but didn't think it was great. Lucas Hedges as Ben is excellent in the role. The end of the film however have you turn your head and say "huh?"
