NONSPOILER
this review from the pov of a student:
shooketh. tangible tension. i watched this movie and i was shooketh. during the scene, i was shooketh. it’s all i can say. fantastic movie. the ending is just 😭. would recommend. the negative ratings i’ve seen here are mostly as follows if you see this and are wondering: they are mostly people complaining that there are gay people, and that it’s an anti-g*n movie, that they don’t focus on one character, and that another doesn’t get many lines. additionally, it’s people complaining that the main characters didn’t witness the sho*ting personally.
i think that the fact they didn’t see it drives the point home. they didn’t have to see it. us watching the movie don’t have to see it. not seeing it, for people at home, and also the characters, or someone in that real situation, leaves room to imagine, and sometimes imagination is bad. just hearing the g*n shots was enough for me at least. shooketh
