6.5/10
It's strange how a movie can ask strong, interesting questions and challenge a viewer's opinion and preconceived notions...but then take the easy way out in every way when it comes to concluding things. The acting is solid and the movie is beautifully shot (and never boring) but this is a movie that had me and then lost me by the end. Way too "shiny and happy" for me, and for the material too - I thought it was a little ill-fitting and inappropriate to end a movie that asks tough questions about the nature of violence and reaction with such a Disney-ish conclusion. Disappointing.
