Downloading Nancy

I think this movie is bizarre bit brilliant. The trailer was amazing. The performances make this movie stand out. Maria Bello is great, capturing the character very well. Interesting and out of the box. Worth a watch and an open mind.

dark and disturbing, but honest!

That's the worst roll I've seen Jason Patric play.

I agree with the other reviews that Bello's acting is great but even so this script is just too melodramatic and contrived to feel the emotion or "cerebral" moral conflict that Renck was undoubtedly aiming for.

I was so touched by this work of art. The script is spell-binding. All the acting performances are brilliant. So ... why do so many people hate it? That is because it dares to make us look at what so many of us have been a part of. Children within our own families are abused. And we refuse to believe them when in so many different ways they scream at us -- mama, daddy, auntie, brother, sister, why didn't you protect me from him!

This film is way too caught up on being creepy. It struggles to tell a story, it is completely consumed by the bleak nature of itself. Nancy isn't even a person at some point, it is very obvious that she is the most miserable being that could come out of a writer's mind.

I really got angry because i sat down to watch this crap and turn it off in 50 minutes time. Total boredom..!!! Total nothing!!!

Maria Bello's performance is a tour de force; the rest of the movie will have you reaching for selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors... This is a depressing story of loneliness and despair by a woman who is used to feeling emotionally void and seeking pain in order to feel something. It is a difficult watch, but the acting is terrific and makes it worthwhile.

This plot was intense!

I thought this was an extremely good look at a woman living right on the edge. A husband who doesn't know she is alive, the incredible amount of pain and rage she feels yet can't express, except through self injurious behavior. Not a feel good movie, but definitely thought provoking.
