Had no idea this was a Kiwi masterpiece! Sinister and dark but with that Kiwi sense of humour. SO GOOD!
The acting is great and it has some very uncomfortable scenes of helplessness. Not for everyone though as it has little payoff and is quite slow.
The judge as the protector of the innocent makes it his life's work. Very good film, two of the greats facing off. Excellent watch.
The acting was top-notch! I felt a sense of dread the entire time.
I went into this very blind. Lithgow and Rush and truly excellent in this. Very surprised at the stress this induced!
