This is How Movies Should Be Made

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Well the reason people bully isn't always the same. It isn't always because they have a hard life. But sometimes it is and so this movie took this bullying reason. It is actually a great movie to show teenagers and have a conversation about.I really like thew style of the movie. It being filmed as if it is a documentary makes this movie feel much more realistic which is great. Acting is pretty good as well. I think the only time it felt fake was when the victim cried about being bullied. But this most likely wasn't because of her acting but because the lines were a bit overdramatic which was unfortunate. Because otherwise the movie was awesome. I like the participation of everyone, friends, people who kind of knew them, family members etc.

In this film, the storyline becomes clear throughout the movie and why the main character attempted to do something dramatic and fatal. In this day and age, bullying has gotten worse year after year. But after watching this film, you'll have a better understanding of the consequences of bullying. The actors were remarkable until the end of the movie. There was so much emotion and drama that made me want to watch it again.

This movie impressed me. It shows bullying from both perspectives, especially what it can do to the victim, who was nearly driven to suicide, and the oppressor was given a chance to express her side of things. I liked the filming and points of view of the movie, as it was filmed in a news style and documentary style, kind of like the way The Office or Parks and Recreation were filmed, except this was no sitcom. The harassment scenes were a bit difficult to watch, though, and the girl's reaction and wanting to confide in her friend and film it were good. Hunter King's scenes towards the end were excellent. This is a good movie to show anyone in high school. It has a different perspective now with cyber and text bullying and harassment. All the performances were top notch, and you will love the last shot.*** out of ****

It's nice to see someone actually deal with this issue that is often swept aside and not dealt with. As a person that spent nearly half of their school years being bullied I know what it feels like to question everything about yourself and this hit close to home. From the stand point of the victim it's a very good portrayal, both writing wise and acting wise.I have to say it's also very refreshing to see both sides of the story, most of the previous movies I have seen on the subject tends to be one-sided and often unrealistic. This is what life looks like for many teenagers all over the world and I am so glad someone had the guts to deal with the subject and show the world what is happening behind closed doors.The thing that drags down the score a bit for me is the documentary style filming. It doesn't really draw you in from the start and you have to actually give the movie a chance to get started. However it is definitely a good educational movie that I would recommend, and as the title says an emotional ride. At least if you have somehow been involved in similar situations.
