Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Onlinewsma Absolutely Brilliant!
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Michael Ledo Based on a true story we pretty much know the ending from the opening plot spoiler teaser. Danny Evans (Richard Pawulski) is a likable autistic man who is going camping on his own. Meanwhile Nicholas (Danny Miller) a high testosterone individual, has been booted out by his girlfriend Lisa. He visits Julia (Natalie Martins) a hot looking friend who wants Nicholas, who doesn't want her. Julia informs Nicholas his virgin Lisa was no angel and had sex with Danny before him. Nicholas goes into a rage and wants to meet Danny, Julia succumbs. Danny enlists the help of Calvin (Reece Douglas) informing him that Danny is a "peed-o-phile" and needs to be punished vigilante style.From the opening spoiler clip, we know where this leads.This is your basic blood and torture film done slowly and only one guy and no women get their tops ripped off. Odd how real life is that way. Difficult to watch at times with some cringe worthy scenes, even though it doesn't actually show the penetration, just the swinging and results.Guide: F-word. No sex. Near male nudity.
Tehe The description of the movie says that Danny's Bullies wanted to see him suffer. This movie shows Bullying at its finest and good acting for all involved. Sad thing is that in real life,this happens everyday in these days and times. Bullies should watch this movie along with counseling, to change their behaviors before it is too late.
lhardwick69 the fact that this movie is based on a true story and see what these people did to an autistic boy--and sit there type a review saying you love it..there is some movies for entertainment and some that's not--this is one of them..would you want this to happen to you and let a movie be made about it and people say dude I loved it it was freaking awesome --what they did to you was sweet--get real..this is hard to watch for the fact its based on true story and I imagine its pretty detailed in what happened was accurate-- spoiler spoiler--it takes one girl to make a comment and the guy wants make him pay for it--the rumor isn't the point of the movie besides the fact its about another girl and the autistic boy--in the end--no justice is served for the guy-- they should been put in woods with a bunch of rapists and murderers and dealt with--people say that's wrong and barbaric--but what they did to him and get to sit in a prison cell for few yrs or for life isn't justice they are alive and he isn't--
Lee Steele This is a deeply unpleasant piece of cinema, which is very difficult to watch. The violence is horrific and I really struggle to find any redeeming qualities in this film. I regret watching it due to the relentless, gratuitous violence. It felt like the film maker was reveling in this sick violence and trying to get the viewer involved or to enjoy it in some sort of way. In my view this was totally unnecessary, ruined what could have been an exceptional film and left a nasty taste. This is not entertainment but violence porn. Avoid.
