Good crime / mystery

I give Every Secret Thing a seven star rating purely based on the fact that I was entertained during the whole movie and that the actors and actresses did a good job. None of the cast can't be blamed for bad acting or whatever. The story keeps you alert for almost the whole movie and that's perfect when it's a crime / mystery. I was a bit disappointed by the ultimate ending but nevertheless it was a good story. You don't figure out the whole plot until the end and that's rare with crime / mystery movies. It probably is not the best crime mystery but certainly not the worst either. I would watch it again in a couple years when I forgot about the story.

This film definitely borders on the macabre.

Two little brats, equally disturbed, kidnap a baby and literally let it die and are sent to a reformatory for what they have done.

Fast forward seven years later: The girls are released and begin telling varied tales which of course leads to one blaming the death of the child on the other.

When a second inter-racial child is snatched, naturally suspicion arises regarding our two females.

Diane Lane is in a most perplexing character. She is an elementary school teacher and mother of Alice, a very heavy set girl, who walks around. Where is the shame that the Lane character should have for a daughter doing such a thing? Amazing with her own irrational behavior that she was able to continue in the teaching profession.

The film takes an odd twist when it is learned that Alice was impregnated during her stay and gave birth to a child. She is desperately looking for that child and participated solely in the second kidnapping. She states that with a life gone, she can now bring life to her child.

On top of all this, the other girl is eventually shown to be the real culprit and Alice is totally exonerated. Exonerated? After all, she did snatch the second child.

The film is definitely quite eerie in nature.

A Female-centered Crime Story

Frances McDormand acts as a first-time executive producer in this psychological thriller entitled Every Secret Thing.Diane Lane,Elizabeth Banks,Dakota Fanning,Danielle Macdonald,Colin Donnell and Nate Parker stars in this film that tells the story about a detective conducting an investigation on missing children in a small town.

Detective Nancy Porter remains haunted by his inability to save the life of a missing child from two children,Alice and Ronnie.After eight years,he finds herself conducting an investigation on another missing child after the two children convicted of the crime eight year ago were released from juvenile detention.She and her partner are determined to never let the current missing child from dying in the hands of the two released juveniles.They start investigating the mothers of the said children particularly Helen,the mother of Alice. Then they begin to discover a lot of secrets particularly the events of the crime that had happened eight years ago.

Well,this was a predictable thriller wherein everything was explained in the end.Also,we get to see a somewhat confusing movie considering that it was told in a non-chronological order to add complexity to a somewhat simple crime story.In the end,the viewer is treated to a film wherein the least expected suspect to commit the crime is evidently guilty all along.So it was basically predictable especially when Diane Lane's character Helen starts explaining things.One thing that is noticeable is the fact that we are treated to a female-centered crime story wherein the criminals,the detectives,the suspects,the victims,victims' relatives and the missing links are all female characters.
