The first time I saw it I was disappointed. I was really looking forward to it, and was hoping for more horror and less TV courtroom drama.
The second time I knew what to expect, but still thought some the courtroom stuff was too dramatic, a bit TV-ish.
I watched it for a third time just recently and actually liked it a lot. The scary parts are actually pretty scary, and you really feel for Jennifer Carpenter's character. And the courtroom stuff is fairly well done. Definitely a step above TV drama, and you really gotta hate that guy with the moustache. If you think of it as a Crichton-style courtroom movie with some horror elements, I think it plays much better.
