    Hilary swank is very irritating in this cliche-ridden pile of rot. Avoid.

    An amazing true story. The only thing is that it should have concluded that he died only 6 months after being released from prison

    This is really a heart warming film. I'm a 25 year old male and it had me in tears. Its so sad to know that this actually happens. The film really pulls at the heart strings , it is slow but its so worth watching. One of the best films ive ever seen. Wish there was more like it

    I loved watching this film. A true storey about the uncompromising love between a brother and sister and a fight for justice, right and wrong. It is probably one of the best films I've see in a long time.

    This film was watchable, but very much for the daytime tv audience.

  • Heartwarming account for a tragic true story

    Its one of those stories that makes you really sit back and think about your life. A heart wrenching story about a man that is imprisoned for the murder of a local woman because of his repeated incarceration of minor convictions in small town America. Well worth a watch.

  • A sad true story

    The film had me on edge throughout in the way that a horror movie does. I always thought something was going to go wrong at the end.... Well directed and well acted. A dark tale about a life lost and the corruption of a police force.
