Om den här filmen

From the producer of FOXCATCHER and based on the novel by New York Times best-selling author Laura Lippman, EVERY SECRET THING is a gripping psychological crime thriller about the chilling consequences of the secrets we keep. Detective Nancy Porter (Elizabeth Banks) is still haunted by her failure to save the life of a missing child from the hands of two young girls. Eight years later, another child goes missing in the same town just days after Ronnie and Alice (Dakota Fanning and newcomer Danielle Macdonald), the two girls convicted of the former crime, were released from juvenile detention. Porter and her partner (Nate Parker) must race against the clock to prevent history from repeating itself. But as they begin to investigate the girls and their families, especially Alice’s protective mother (Diane Lane), they unearth a web of secrets and deceptions that calls everything into question.

Betyg och recensioner

Two pre teen girls go to jail for 7 years for murder of a baby. Now out, a toddler goes missing. Which girl is truly evil. I read the book. Not great. Saw the movie. Bad acting. Sad / happy / mixed emotions on ending. Just ok.

Hoping for something like the tv show, Secrets and Lies. Not even close though. More of a bad Indy film with good actors and a bad cinematographer. I haven't seen that many black vignettes since my high school yearbook.

This is by no means an edge of your seat kind of movie, so if that's what you're wanting or expecting, this is probably not the film for you. While the movie does deal with crime, it is much more a brilliant character study into the minds, motivations and psyche of all involved, including the female police detective. Nice work from Dakota Fanning, but the performances by Diane Lane and, in particular newcomer Danielle Macdonald are, quite simply, positively bonechilling!
