      Jr B I give this movie an 8.5! Very surreal and heart felt. Main character really made you have the feels. Recommended for sure. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/27/24 Full Review Jasmine G Although the concept of the movie was easy to grasp, various devices that could've made the movie and story more compelling were absent. There was very little character building and development. The audience did not get a chance to get to know the main character, Kara, before or after the kidnapping. There was very little insight given into her personal life or relationships. If these details were included, it would have made for a better story as the audience could feel more connected to the character. The same issues apply for the kidnapper. Kidnapping and assault is an unsettling topic alone, but more insight in to the background, mindset, and life of the kidnapper would've allowed the audience to be more engaged and provide a deeper understanding. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Julia N Great movie! Kara Robinsons strength is inspiring and I think Katie Douglas was the perfect actress to tell her story. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/19/23 Full Review Gloria Page R Great story of surviving by not panicking & how important thinking is! Hope she has a great life now. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/02/23 Full Review BB God awful. Probably the worst crime movie I've ever seen in my life. I feel awful if this is based off of a true story because it has to be humiliating for the people who actually endured this for it to be portrayed by such horrendous acting and screenwriting. Don't waste your time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/20/23 Full Review Tiany M It was a good plot but some of the acting was kind of bland.

      Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media Granted, The Girl Who Escaped: The Kara Robinson Story would benefit from more focus on Robinson's recovery process and success to make it as informative as it is sensational. Jun 6, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
