We Need to Talk About Kevin (2011)

Thankfully, all the pieces were put together by the end of the movie, but for the first 30 minutes or so I was pretty annoyed with the out-of-order structure and confused as to how a cruelly evil child could exist from birth. This wasn’t a horror movie, but it may as well have been since the evil was inexplicable and seemingly unavoidable.

I also just can't believe that an entire town would demonize the mother of a monster.  Though she took some kind of legal responsibility for her son’s actions, would the neighborhood hate her so actively for it and for years? After all, she lost her entire family to her son's evilness. And why the hell didn’t she simply move?

Amazing, amazing acting, though.
