So, the weird thing about this movie is that it’s kinda based on the Amanda Knox story, but completely fictionalized to add in the Matt Damon character trying to rescue her. This appears to be going for some kind of thriller, Taken-esque vibe with Abigail Breslin as the girl and Damon as the extremely Southern dad. I don’t know- it’s from Tom McCarthy, who did Spotlight of all things, so…maybe it’ll be good? But why didn’t he just do a movie based on the real thing?
