Now this was an odd one. I don't know if I've really seen a movie in which the message is "When it comes to the death penalty, a centrist view is what's best". I've defintely never seen a movie in which that is the core of the movie from start to end, and that movie is a romance. Salvaged by the 110% believable performances given by both leads. Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go.
