      Dan H This a good movie - very well made. The acting is good, and the terrible shooting confirms that the Democrat "leaders" of our country are and always have been WRONG about more gun control. This movie shows what the Republicans have always tried to make the Democrats understand: most school shootings are done by people who sent up signals, not just to the school and classmates, but also to their parents. The mother in this movie is just as guilty as the shooter. As they say - guns don't kill people, people kill people. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/29/23 Full Review Andre G Bringing one of the school shootings to the big screen. Pretty good movie too. Has some rage against a teacher. Also takes the school students hostage too. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
