I wish they did more with the male love interest. It made him really fuckin creepy (cause theres no way he didn't remember that happening) and a more interesting character than the frat guy villains it ended with. Especially since the ending is the weakest part of the movie.
Anyways I enjoyed watching it but the movie falls apart the more you think about it. The cop ending is dumb and the shifts in tone from Deathwish to 2000s chic flick to whatever the hell the last 30 minutes were didn't work very well.
cops don't give a shit/can't do anything about rape. They need murders to play hero. She gave them the only way to get the rapists. She's a martyr 100% and I get why that leaves a sour taste in people's mouths- the idea that she can't get justice any other way- but the discussion with the friend's mother shows she's probably not going to move past this any other way. Especially after Bo's reveal basically radicalised her even further.

At least the cops were shown to be just as shitty as everyone else and she had to literally die in order to get any sort of justice.
