The trailer made me think this would be a thriller, similar to Gone Girl. It is really more of a drama, which is fine, just not what I was expecting.
If you're reading this before watching it, just know going into it trigger warning for SA and a school shooting. I don't think the poster and the description would make you think it was going that way.
Overall it feels sort of like an elevated Lifetime movie. I haven't read the book, so maybe that is more due to the subject material. Chiara Aurelia is very good as young Mila, and I'm always happy to see Connie Britton.
