Can we believe that police officers would let a psychopathic rapist and murderer go free in the name of fighting homegrown terrorism? As an allegory for human-rights abuses during the War on Terror, it's a non-starter.

It's Julia Roberts who owns the movie. As the grieving Jess, a woman reduced to a shadow by the death of her daughter, Roberts is a revelation here.
Liz Braun, Toronto Sun
Rotten
A dream-team cast is wasted in this contrived and morose crime thriller.
Rafer Guzman, Newsday

Essentially a grim procedural with too many moments of untapped potential and a moderately shocking twist.
