ComingSoon.net has posted another rave review of Abbie’s performance in Stop-Loss. Check out the full review here.

Peirce keeps things tighter and more focused on her characters, proving that Hilary Swank’s performance in Boys Don’t Cry was no fluke by producing equally satisfying performances from Ryan Phillippe and Abbie Cornish. One of Australia’s finest young ingénues, Cornish is particularly convincing as the tough young Texan woman trying to come to grips with the events that have caused such suffering and changes in her fiance and childhood friends. The chemistry between Phillippe and Cornish makes their time on the road the best part of the movie, although thankfully, their relationship does not go where some might expect. It clearly shows how the Hollywood esthetics of 21 hurt it compared to the indie approach taken with Stop-Loss that allows it to be far more credible.
