Trust (I) (2010)
4/10
with a tent of realism but get old and very cliché

first of all i must say that my vote of 4 does not mean that the movie is horrendous or too bad but it's my take so here it goes. it started with that all American happy, have it all (iphone, Mac, ithing). the boy is leaving for college, the girl is a teenager and is going to a good school, with good kids that you see in American family movies. dad works for big company, mom also works. girl chats using her apple arsenal to a guy. all is sweet and happy. then she finds out that the guy is older and older and she then accepts to meet him. then she anyway meets with him and they make almost consensual sex. and then dad goes nuts and everything goes into a drama where father is so much affected. a big drama is made on this. the father, the mother, the detective, the school shring start agitating around the girl. to me it got old after the first where i felt that all was so exaggerated and to much around the 14 years old girl. she was tricked by an older man and that is not something nice but i felt that too much fuss was done because of all this unfortunate happening. all is boringly plausible to the fact that the detective is not able to find out more about the pedophile, even if he could get months of internet chat records. the girl had photos of the guy but this somehow is not used. this is realistic... if you believe the all happy American familily image, however things are too much dragged on and too much accent is put on the educational side. may be a useful movie to see for a parent or a teenager but it gets sloow and grinding too fast
