with polls: What did you think of locally shot 'Conviction'?

"Conviction," the Hilary Swank movie that did a lot of its filming in this area last year, finally opened here Friday, as part of a staggered rollout across the country.

The film is based on the true story of Betty Anne Waters, who put herself through law school with the sole goal of exonerating her brother on a false murder conviction. It also stars Sam Rockwell and Minnie Driver.

Critical reaction to "Conviction" has been largely positive. But what did you think? And how does it compare to the other major movies shot in the area? Vote in our polls and/or leave a comment below:
