Heather This is just a film about stupid people with no common sense or any idea about how the law works. Find myself getting so angry that one she doesn't just walk out and two, that the manager is even more dumb. How anyone would not realise cops don't phone like this and people can't hold you because of a voice in a phone. Infuriating in the first 15 mins, trust me.

Bill Peter I found this film so annoying that I stopped watching TV and went and read a book while listening to music. I wanted to shout at the TV "'phone a lawyer you idiots. I can't believe that it is based on a true story.

bcheng93 very very hard movie to watch how stupid can people really be? hard to believe...but it's a true story and has happen 70 times...i remember reading about it in newspapers in early 2000's...it happen here in New York City too. this movie gets my blood boiling..what an evil psychpath...and he doesn't get any jail time....nice justice system. people involved including the victim had i.q.s of an 8 year old child...even a 10 year old would know better. very very good movie and i agree with other reviewers...this should be a requisite viewing in every high school. i can understand why people would walk out of theaters and not finish the movie...it's a very hard watch and almost incredulous..but...it's true. i believe it's a very important movie and kudos to the people that put this movie together..may Stewart rot in hell.

cblazo This is a great film. The simplicity and the wonderfully, stupid submission of the main characters is excellent. This film will surely press your buttons and you will be making comments to your television. It is said to be based on true events and with tons of stupid people out there, I believe it. Compliance is a testament to how blindly loyal some folks are to authority. That they will do anything. Including impeding their own morals and values based on a convincing, silver-tongued, smooth talker. You will feel embarrassed and uneasy while watching this movie and for that, the director gets an A+. He portrayed the vision correctly. Which made you feel what the young woman was going through. Like I said. This movie is simple and on a low budget, but the acting is great and complimentary. Ann Dowd played the store manager role superbly. She was believable and came across as a naive, do-gooder with an acceptance issue. Becky was played by Dreama Walker and as an up and coming actress, she did quite well. Compliance is a movie that I watched multiple times and would recommend to most. It's a film that touches on some gray areas and raises the blood pressure due to the total stupidity of some people's belief in all authority.
