At least it doesn't lack in big moments where people cry and scream. Go to Full Review Sam Adams Time Out 06/04/2013

It barely tries to offer insight into its much-debated subject, content to rip the scab off an ever-fresh wound for the sake of controversy. Go to Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com 09/10/2020
3.0/4.0

SillyGleeby Aug 31 I think its pretty cool, it really shows all sides and how bullying can affect kids in other ways than suicide. See more 05/17/2022 It is actually great, I dont understand the critics, I enjoyed it and it deserved it's 73% audience score! See more 12/13/2020 Focuses more on adult characters and their problems than the title character himself who happens to be the textbook stereotype of depressed bullied white boy school shooter. See more 03/30/2020 emotional yet worth watching film. See more 10/07/2018 An amazing movie with a powerful story and a great cast. See more 06/27/2014 an example of art imitating life or vice versa See more Read all reviews
