What Reelgood users are saying

"Precious" is a deeply sad yet hopeful film, blending multiple stories of abuse and systemic neglect. It transcends typical narratives with creative elements and features outstanding performances, particularly by Mo'Nique.

Although horrible and depressing things take place in this movie, nonetheless, it is a story thoroughly suffused with hope and resilience. There were some creative elements to this movie that I didn't suspect, which elevated it above a standard "made-for-tv movie" type story of abuse. The performances are terrific, too, especially by Mo'Nique, who was outstanding.
