My Comment:
I had no idea what this movie was all about. My friends who had read the book was so enthusiastic watching this movie since they said the book was amazingly awesome. My friends kept telling me that the story was so different than the book and they got disappointed. But, in contrast I enjoyed this movie very much, I love Jennifer's act (I knew that she'd do well cause her act in winter's bone was awesome). I was stunned that this movie could keep my adrenaline high and steady. Just a bit disappointed with the ending, but then changed my mind when my friends told me that the ending should be that way because it is a trilogy.

My Comment:
Oh My God! It was the worst thing that had ever happened to a girl. Obesity, Abused, Raped, HIV illness, good God! I don't say that i hate this movie, and i don't say i like it. However, I really like Precious, She's strong, and she's mature even though she was only 16
