I don't think I had much of an issue relating to Lena's character per se (though her wandering accent threw me out of the story at times ;)). My problem was/is that the writer/director chose to do a bait-and-switch that *hinged* on inconsistent (and, therefore, dishonest) characters' reactions to an incident of rape (from both a survivor's perspective, as well as from a perpetrator's perspective). The movie deliberately manipulated the viewer into believing that the situation had occurred one way or the other by *radically* changing Derek's and Naomi's characterizations from one scene to the next, which is treating rape like a gimmick imo. Maybe if the directing hadn't been so heavyhanded, I'd've felt differently, but... eh *shrugs*.
I'll agree with you on Cathy Jones being a fox though. :P
