This film was posted in the thread for a 2017 short, here: https://www.first-loves.com/forums/view ... hp?t=13696

I moved it to a new thread of unknown country until we can figure out what film it is!

Maybe it is the feature film adapted from the original short?
The Vigilante (2023) [United States] ??

I will move &/or rename the thread when information is confirmed.

Thanks for this movie nota-bene. Seems you don't like it. I'll give it a chance anyways.

You don't trust IMDB?

This link https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5660834/ isn't the short film. IMDB says 1h 41m.

You don't trust IMDB?

When I am in the position of guessing what feature movie something is when it is posted in a short film thread where the short has a different year, the posted movie has a different "accepted" name than the most likely IMDB candidate, there are at least two more movies from the same later year with nearly the same posted name, and I DO NOT HAVE IT -- then, NO I do not trust IMDB or anyone posting here. I don't care to compound one minor mistake with another of my own, so I put it as Feature Film Unknown until I had a chance to download it and confirm it, because from nota-bene's specs it was clearly NOT a short and it belonged in a thread of its own instead. There was nothing factually incorrect in what I posted, because I made it clear I was guessing. Nyah.

Now that I have seen with my own eyes what it IS and that my guess was correct, I have re-edited the Subject, put the IMDB link in the first post, and moved it to United States. It looks like nota-bene was led to the short film thread because of the IMDB link there that was also posted for the then-incomplete feature, so it was more than just the film name. The slightly shorter runtime of nota-bene's file must be from 25fps speedup.

THANK YOU nota-bene for being willing to share a movie even when you are unenthusiastic about it yourself!

These were many words about a simple thing.

Seriously, what else would you expect from ME?

Is this because there isn't much OT content, because it's a crappy film, or both?

Well, it's not because of the former. (As you might have noticed, nota-bene is not a talkative guy. Normally I would have stopped right here. But I'll try for once.)

A movie should make you believe in the story, or the characters, in order to make you feel something, or care about something. It should "suck you in". This one simply doesn't do it for me. It deals with serious subject matters but it seems speculative. Like they want to make a movie to get rich and famous, and choose sensationalist themes they don't know anything about or even really care about.

nota-bene is not a talkative guy.

In that case the character you chose for your avatar is spot on.
(Although not the actor, who is very talkative outside of certain of his movie roles.)

Spoiler: I know I am being unfair because I have not watched even a majority of the movie, but I quickly saw that the acting was REALLY bad. This goes into the lack of believability of the characters. I also noticed that the supposed 13-year-old younger sister was physically much taller and larger than the older sister who was a Marine, and it did not seem as if SHE was capable of shooting someone running straight towards her. Maybe it was the editing and her opponent was actually zigzagging ...

Thank you for your verbal outpouring, nota-bene.

That's exactly what I would say about this movie, too. I stopped watching it after 30 minutes. They turned what was actually a serious subject into an action movie mixed with some Afghanistan trauma and a few fighting scenes. There are better movies about sex trafficking, for example I Am Stll Here.

Aaaand: It's another movie where a 13yo girl looks at least like 16.
