The Unforgiveable

— Sandra Bullock still commands our attention, even in this film where she's dulled from years in prison and now dealing with an unsympathetic world, and sporting make-up designed to make her look as plain as possible. The story is sometimes unfocused and not as good as the cast, but I still watched from start to finish and considered it worth my while. I'm not sure Viola Davis would agree since her part doesn't seem in any way up to her acting abilities. [Netflix streaming.]
