First of all, if you're looking for a horror movie then this isn't the one you're searching for. I have absolutely no clue why it is categorized in this genre. That said if you're looking for a good drama about a problem that reoccurs every year and not only in America like some other reviewers seem to think, then Rushed might be right up your alley. It's about fraternities and their dumb macho behavior seeking to humiliate freshmen. To be honest I always had a problem with that, certainly with some bullies that think they are better than anyone else. Those big mouths always feel powerful in front of a group, but alone, when it's man to man they are the biggest wussies you can imagine. I can speak from experience, as I tamed more than one of those losers. That said the movie is entertaining to follow, with a great Siobhan Fallon Hogan as the main character. It could have been much better though, with a better ending, but it's still satisfying, just not satisfying enough for me. It could have been a horror in the end, but for that the ending should have been more graphic and brutal, now it felt a bit soft.
Well worth a watch. And the woman playing the mother is absolutely fantastic!
Lead actress did a fantastic job! The whole cast was terrific. The film falls apart closer to the end which is purely on the writers and director. More stories like this need to be told that's a must!! This film keeps you hooked then leaves you unsatisfied. There's no closure, no justice which is what this films lacks. I do believe had they done this film with a better ending or better revenge part there would be Oscar buzz but it falls flat at the end. So still a great eye opening for the horrors of hazing, I would still recommend other to see it for the acting and what this story is about.
From the first scene I was riveted. The hazing scenes gutted me. Siobhan Fallon Hogan, as the lead character, is completely convincing, as is the entire cast. This is an important film based on something we all know occurs on college campuses; a powerful story which takes a surprising turn.. There are so many gems in this film. See it.
The movie was long enough but if they had taken out the dead space and hooked on a decent ending... it would have been much better. The acting and directing is outstanding... it's the script that falls somewhat short.
