Arid S This was wrote by Harmony Korine, this is probably why its a masterpiece, gripped me from the start, once again I sit here sometimes saying "WHY HARMONY!". Just unreal, I felt like I knew all the characters perfectly by time the film ended, just a masterpiece. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/25 Full Review thiago s Filme legal, o roteiro é legal, o filme tem uma história meio dramática e meio perturbadora com algumas cenas reais de masturbação e de boquete, outra cena maluca foi o próprio pai voltar para casa bêbado e ir no quarto do seu próprio filho e fazer um boquete nele, que porra é essa, e depois teve um cena real de sexo entre tres adolescentes dois garotos e uma garota com ela chupando de verdade os dois caras e depois os garotos fudendo ela de verdade, com tudo isso, eu recomendo esse filme vale a pena assistir. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/27/24 Full Review Audience Member I love Kids and Bully as much today as when they came out. They rank high up in the List Of Films That Matter to Me. Ken Park, unfortunately, left me cold. I felt no attachment to any of these young people whatsoever. I felt more emotionally invested in their parents (even if most of that emotion was loathing). Clark and Korine have created some of the most legendary teenage characters of all time: Kids' Casper and Telly and Harold, Bully's Ally and Bobby and...well, all of them really. But the Ken Park kids just feel like victims, empty shells you never really come to know or care for. They're never funny or clever or even appealingly depraved. Also whoever did the costumes should get an Oscar for "least appealing selection of mens' underwear in a feature film." Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/12/24 Full Review Renee D Weird movie. Just weird. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member If your childhood and teen years were troubled, you will love the story and psychology behind it. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Heaps of potential, largely wasted. The lives of a group of skateboarding teens in the city of Visalia, California. I had low expectations for this film. It is directed by Larry Clark, who specialises in gratuitous sex and nudity for shock value, and seems to creepily delight in making films about teenagers. However, the movie started very well with an incredibly powerful opening scene. Having grabbed my attention, Clark and writer Harmony Korine then proceeded to retain it with fairly engaging scene-setting. So far, so good. Everything was set up for a good exposition of modern teen life with a profound ending. However, Clark can't help himself and, as the movie progresses, he starts to throw in the gratuitous sex and nudity he is known for. It is all for shock value and here it is over the top. No wonder this film is so controversial. The explicit scenes cheapen and divert what was shaping up to be a good drama. Instead of a well-thought-out and crafted examination of teen life we have extreme and weird plot developments, just for shock value. It's not all bad though: some of the sub-plots (e.g. the Tate one) remain interesting and the ending is quite powerful and ties the movie together. Overall: better than expected, but disappointing because it could have been great. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
