Why does a 17 year old run like a 7 year old?


Maybe that was how the rapists truly knew she was a virgin? Seriously, I get they wanted to show her as youthful and innocent, but I've never seen a 17 year old run like that before. It was very distracting.

Also, Kim?? The writers called her KIM?! Why not call Liam Neeson's character Jack and be done with it. 7.9/10? No chance.

She was portraying a 17 year old like a 10 year old.

She was way too immature, in some scenes she actually reminded me of those really bad movies where adults acted like mentally challenged people... what 17 year old girl dresses like she did in the ice cream parlor scene? WTF it was 2009, not 1954.

Go to a mall and see how any average 17 year old kid dresses... I remember my sister and her friends a couple of years ago would dress either in really short shorts and a hoodie... or leggings... or regular jeans... not those long flower dresses like from a 60s sitcom.

"WTF it was 2009, not 1954."

In 1954, seventeen-year-olds were far more mature than in 2009. In 1944 my dad was seventeen, and on the crew of a U.S. Navy destroyer fighting the Japanese navy. Seventeen-year-olds today need sitters.
