7/10
A little disappointing.

Warning: Spoilers
**SPOILERS ahead... ** This movie was well done, but not as captivating as I'd hoped it would be. The film mostly focused on Saoirse Ronan and Cynthia Nixon after the girl had been returned "home" to her family. The scenes featuring Jason Isaacs were, by far, the most interesting, but the movie showed very little of the girl's life before she returned "home." I would have liked to have seen more of life in the basement, vs life afterward, as the concept was interesting an Isaacs was brilliant, as he always is. The movie was very sad, but not for the reasons one would imagine. The mother was a complete monster and it was difficult to watch the mother daughter scenes as the movie progressed.
