As you watch this, keep in mind this film was made 14 years ago. It would be hard now days to imagine parents reacting so casually to their 14-year old daughter chatting with an unknown male on the internet. We've come a long way since then!
The film does an excellent job of presenting what happens during the process where a sexual predator grooms an underage girl. The actor playing Annie is completely convincing. And I'm always in for a Clive Owen movie. I wasn't a huge fan of the ending, but then I believe it was honest.
If you are interested in this subject, the book "My Dark Vanessa" is a good one, and just as disturbing as this film. I found it hard to watch and emotionally wrenching at times, but it's an important film, and it should be watched. Highly recommended.
