<I>Great works of art hold great power.</I> I love this movie. The CGI scene we could do without but this was clever in story and main character. This is quite rape issue heavily since dealing with a serial rapist in the movie and being raped. The twist and turn are so worth seeing developed and become what becomes an ending that I could see happen.
