7/10
I don't know how she filmed that scene. It's so graphic in content and looks horrifying

I understand that they were trying to show the horror of rape, but if you read what happened to the lady that the movie is based on it doesn't really play out the same way as it does in the movie. It was almost glamorized in a way. I wish they had not put the scene in the movie at all or had skipped the graphic parts of it. I feel bad that she was worried about the men. It seems really strange to me. Yet I can kind of understand it as it might actually be more uncomfortable for them to do what they had to do to a young woman. The more I think about I think showing rape scenes of this kind to show the horror of rape never works. It almost downplays it or even can do the opposite of what it's intended to do by glamorizing it as some kind of fun activity to some people, Like some kind of extreme porn for addicts.
