      Audience Member VIFF Review: "Lucia De B(Accused)" is a sometimes gripping, sometimes run of the mill story that stands out more positively due to Ariane Schluter and Sallie Harmsen's performances. It's also based on a true story, so the film is engaging. However, it does contain unnecessary flashbacks and the film doesn't spend enough time or give a great amount a detail on why she is accused of murder and before you know it, she's in jail and you are barely into the movie. Regardless, this is an enjoyable faulty justice system movie that never has anything great about it, but mostly everything is good. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Despite the unnecessary flashbacks, this is a strong, heartbreaking film that tells of the hell faced by an innocent real-life woman in Netherlands - a female version of Camus' Meursault for that matter -, condemned by public opinion mostly for her independent and reserved nature. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member The true story of a miscarriage of justice in the Netherlands made into a fictional thriller, the film has the recipe for a captivating watch: the titular character's agony of injustice and her spirit of perseverance; the court-room tension of observing a trial in progress; a character on a guilt trip and a mission to undo the wrongs; all strapped in with fictionalized accounts of what'd happened in reality. The film takes its liberties with history and smothers in, blatantly, sappy flashbacks to capture the audience's sympathy, but all the while creating a thrilling tale of redemption and the deliverance of true justice to the individual. For an extensive review: http://anaesthetician.com/luciadeb.html Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member The script's too Hollywood-ish, but it is actually a good "based on a true events" story. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member really want to see it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Quite disappointing indeed. Plain & flat, like a TV movie. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
