ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
milosprole9 I think this Australian film has to be one of deepest and darkest drama films I've seen.This film is brilliant, an excellent as the story, but you will absolutely find it shocking and disturbing.The beginning scene showed that someone committed suicide at 2:37 pm in school, but don't tells me who did die, so the story begins tells from the start of the day, there are 6 main teen characters (Teresa Palmer's character is one of them). All these main characters had own personal problems, and it will make you wonder who one of these will kill himself at the end.It has terrible life stories and dark secrets, but this is what high school is like for many people. It's like the movie of the show "13 Reasons Why" from the 2000s.In the fact, Teresa Palmer was discovered on the street and cast in this movie without an audition and without ever having acted before. She was obviously the reason why I watched it lol. She gave a superb performance and her character had the darkest story.
maraki-lost (This film is now in my favorites list.)First of all, I like watching suicide themed films because they are depressing and make me cry. I liked the story line very much and expected a lot from this film, though I was a little bit worried about how they are going to tackle such a serious issue (suicide). The beginning was nothing extraordinary. Six teens introduce themselves as they talk to someone, probably an interviewer. We start to see each one's personal life and struggles and the film switches from one teen to another. We learn that all of them suffer from depressing thoughts and deal with their own personal hell, whether that means a strict/absent parent (Marcus) or an embarrassing medical condition (Steven). What made the film incredible for me was that I could relate to most teens on many levels and I thought the screenwriter and director did handled this very sensitive topic incredibly well. Also, the actors were considerably believable.The way this movie is filmed makes you sympathize with all 6 people to some extent. It doesn't make excuses for the heroes' actions but it explains why they do what they do and you can feel for them. I felt like I was back in high school for once more. The bullying theme is very strong in this film, which is another issue to pay attention to.The end came with a twist which I had predicted. The person that has committed suicide is not among the six teens that share their feelings for the documentary, it's the girl (Kelly) that had no one to share her feelings with. All other characters have some sort of connection with someone. Steve has Kelly asking him if he's okay, Marcus also talks to Kelly, Melody has a girl friend etc. But we see Kelly all alone in each take, she's like a ghost, walking in the corridors and trying to talk to people and care for them while no one cares for her in return. All in all, I think this film is worth-viewing and watching again and again. It gives you food for thought. Suicide is no joke. People who keep their feelings bottled up are the ones who need help the most. We should pay attention to everyone and not only care about our world, our life, our problems because we could be missing serious signs that could lead to suicide. Especially in high school, teens are suffering from bullying and neither their parents nor their teachers can identify the problem. I am glad films like this exist so we can shed some light on this horrific trend.
meetallica When the movie started i felt the perfection.For teenager education parents should watch this movie.The movie shows the reality of life and gives examples what students face each day in the school.Really touchy movie and and catchy story that i never forget in my life.To be honest mostly people think life is colorful and worths to live after the movie there is obvious message that life is not that such colorful.The love, tears, laughter and many feelings i had when i was watching this movie.It shows somehow the pointless ways of life and the tragic coincidences of life.
bsr-gl93 Sometimes all of us may think that we have many problems in our life and we may think we are the most unlucky human in the world. After i watched this film my opinion has changed. At the end of the film, indicating the reality of the film is really impressed me. That is why my opinion has changed.At the beginning of the film, they let you know there is a suicide and then the film tells you about the six teenagers and their psychological problems and you want to learn who is the suicided. It makes this film more enjoyable and it makes sensation.There is a girl who helps everyone. She is the most lively person. You may think she is the person who has the least psychological problems but unexpectedly she commit suicide. I think she commit suicide because of being ignored and unnoticed. That is really unguessable ending.
