    Well the beginning was very nice and involving but then it became bland and something like cheap copy of masterpiece - "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri". The fact that "Lost girls" film based on some parts of true events supposed to be emotional but the problem was that characters didn't show it. It was lack of emotions.
