Cork B Nov 17 Solid understated performance from Jackson, who mostly makes his bank from being the loudest, crudest person in the room. Here is a more thoughtful side of him, and the school violence issues more cartoonishly displayed in films like Dangerous Minds or The Substitute. That said, it maybe isn't as fast-food satisfying at the end... See more Fernando T Aug 10 This has to be the best movie from Samuel L Jackon. The subject is very heavy and it makes me tear every time. I highly recommend this movie to anyone. See more Stoner J @Stoner Jul 20 Sorely underrated, mostly semi-fact based flick about what teachers have experienced in Los Angeles and likely elsewhere. The dress and lingo of 1990s L.A. ghettos, is nearly spot on. And all the actors did great jobs. The ending is super gnarly and sad but a powerful movie. See more 11/10/2024 Grossly underrated and well-worth the watch and reflection. I don't really get the poor reviews, but to each their own. I think it's a thoughtful, sobering tragedy, with no heroes or moralizations, only humans pushing and pulling against their principles, and the horrific lengths they will go to embody them. The actors' performances are awesome. My main complaint is that, for the sake of realism, the high schoolers should have been played by actual high schoolers. See more Cassie D 11/09/2024 The entire script relies on stereotypes and tropes. It's bad writing and it's driving hysteria and fear about certain groups of people. The performances are solid, they just had garbage to work with. See more 05/15/2024 Not convincing on so many levels starting with a cast of “high school students” that have to be at least 25 to 30 years old. See more Read all reviews
