I just finished watching the film and was absoloutly amazed by Ellen Page's acting and the overall storyline! The film deals with the main issue of paedophilia and is disturbing at times, but overall the film is unique, amazing and well... You tell me what you think

You can watch it here (1 hour 36 mins) in HD at the bbciplayer website.

I won't talk about it properly yet as I don't want to give away any spoilers.

What do you guys think?

Watched it last year. It was unnerving. You are aware that the guy's a pedo, but there were times in the film where you're torn btwn feeling somewhat sorry for the guy (cos Ellen's character did take things pretty far) and feeling like YES that darn bastard deserved everything he got.
Overall, it was pretty good film.
Ellen's portrayal of her character was spot on.
