STAR PERFORMANCE: Jeniffer Lawrence gave a rough and tough performance. She lived with the character. She showed that she could face any hurdles, without exhibiting her weakness. She expressed many volatile reactions beautifully; that may make her become a nominee for Academy Awards. John Hawkes gave a decent performance as Lawrence's uncle. He portrayed his character, who wants to know about his brother's death, and is also worried about getting died in the same way.
WHAT'S THERE? Michael McDonough's cinematography is something to be appreciated. Though the life of the protagonist and her family is destitute, he clearly gets into their world and captured their joy and happiness. The suspense and turns towards the end of the movie are unexpected. They turned out to be hugely appreciated scenes of the movie.
WHAT'S NOT THERE? The clarity in the narration seemed to be missing. Few of the characters mumbled their dialogues, which went incomprehensible.
VERDICT: The mighty Ree impressed all.
