Leave your thoughts about Private Violence.
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbelePrivate Violence makes painfully clear the emotional and legal hurdles battered women endure just to feel safe again in or outside the home. |
| RogerEbert.comSheila O'MalleyPrivate Violence is extremely sad, but it has a lot of hope. |
| New York TimesNeil GenzlingerPrivate Violence... shows with shocking clarity that the worst of such cases rarely involve just a single punch, and that the problem is far more entrenched than a trending-on-Twitter moment makes it seem. |
| HitFixDan FienbergIt has a tremendous lead character in domestic violence advocate Kit Gruelle, a heartbreaking main case study and genuinely difficulties telling its actual story. |
| NonficsDan SchindelStructural sloppiness pervades this film, but that can't stifle the sheer force of the emotion it evokes. |
| Christianity TodayKenneth R. MorefieldAs with most complicated questions, "Why don't they just leave?" has more than one answer. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyThe obstacles against effectively protecting battered women and prosecuting their abusers are vividly illustrated in Private Violence. |
| HitfixDaniel FienbergA documentary is about storytelling and Private Violence is structured very much like a law-and-order procedural, so an investigation and a build-up to a trial that can't be featured on-screen is anti-climactic storytelling. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThough the film addresses some questions that remain a sticking point in helping abused women, it sheds little new light on them for viewers who've spent any time thinking about this upsettingly widespread phenomenon. |
| User ReviewElizabeth M"Why do they keep going back?" is something I hear over and over from people who blame victim. This does a great job of explaining why. |
