    It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

    Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

    Human Trafficking is a television miniseries about an American Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent going undercover to stop an organization from trafficking people, and shows the struggles of four trafficked women. It stars Mira Sorvino, Donald Sutherland, Rémy Girard, and Robert Carlyle.It was directed by Christian Duguay.In the TV mini-series,four girls from across the world have been kidnapped and thrust into the terrifying world of international sex trade, and a specialized team of Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers are determined to bring down the global network that sponsors such heinous crimes. A former victim who has dedicated her life to protecting the innocent, ICE agent Kate Morozov braves the flesh- peddlers of Russia and endures the terror of an urban torture chamber located in the very heart of Queens in order to bring the ruthless kingpin behind these crimes to justice. When the world's most dedicated cop crosses swords with the man who drives one of the most expansive global conspiracies on the planet, the stage is set for an explosive confrontation of epic proportions.Human Trafficking is difficult to watch.Just when many people have realized that sexual slavery and verisimilitude of human life being equated to money,this TV movie shows that it is still one of the most profitable industry in the 21st century behind drugs and weapons.The viewer will definitely find it painful to watch what the women who were selected unwillingly go through in the tragedy that they face.It was a good thing that the movie avoids big action sequences and avoids the trap of trying to make it a detective story as it never loses its public message about the issue at hand.Also,special mention should be given to both Sutherland and Sorvino for their outstanding and excellent acting.I give this film a high recommendation for this powerful TV movie.

    This LMN movie deserves credit for the subject matter, as does Mira Sorvino, for furthering a cause. Interesting, in the United States we do not always receive information like this on the evening news. It needs to be researched.There are several peripheral stories here, and not for the faint of heart. Filmed graphically, the stories in particular of Helena, Nadia and ICE agent (well-portrayed by Mira Sorvino) are juxtaposed here for maximum effect.The manner in which, throughout Eastern Europe,Mexico, Asia, and other areas, young women are collected, via the internet, dating or various other websites is interesting and frightening. Sergei ( well-portrayed by James Bond villain) Kaparov is effectively odious and powerful, the international black-market owner of brothels, shill corporations and websites to further his human trafficking profits, up to $250,000.00 per month as told by one victim, Helena.While this is a fictional account, upon research make no mistake that this story is but the tip of the iceberg. As Sorvino mentions, a twelve year old child can be sold on the black market for up to $1,000.000 per day, the most profitable criminal activity after drug-running and ammunition. Stark and sad, the story does not sugar-coat. Granted some of the ending violence is a bit clichéd, but the overall story is important and indelible.Performances by actress portraying Nadia, her father, Helena as well as Sorvino and Donald Sutherland and worth noting in this graphic film. Highly recommended. 9/10.

    Thank you for your comments. I feel exactly the same. I have watched this movie last nite. It took me few ours as I needed to stop few times. I ended up at this website because I needed to see the actress as not real characters. I been raped my self and I feel like it was nothing compare to it. The movie shows how hard is to get this bustards because the people whom are into power are mostly males and they don't care as long there is no murder or big money involved. Don't get me wrong that I am trying to criticize guys, I have a great boyfriend my self however it feels like they don't find is as terrible. I got on the train today morning and I could see a number of potential child molesters, I swear and I know that nothing will ever happen to most of them. I don't know how to explain to myself that it was a movie and the real world is not that bad

    Well-acted and exciting, but not a true picture of the sex trade in America. At one point, our intrepid heroine is desperately searching for the secret location of a brothel in Boston where young European girls are held against their will. However, hundreds of horny men with minimal investigative skills are somehow able to find this hidden torture chamber. A secret brothel is practically impossible. For example, you can locate European Delite escort service in Boston by Googling "Boston European escorts." This film purports to be a true-to-life expose, but its cartoonish depiction of human trafficking does not come to grips with how such horrible degradation and exploitation of women actually happens and it does happen. Brothels like the one depicted cannot exist without a level of police indifference or corruption that simply does not exist in America, imperfect as American law enforcement is. Americans and the American government are not without sin in the global sex trade, but we need another movie to tell that story.
