Review of Mean Creek

Thoughts before I watched this.
1. To this day I still here this movie mentioned when it comes to revenge flicks.
2. As to why I haven't seen this I'm not even sure.
3. It has a pretty good cast including the once chunky Josh Peck.
4. I need to do whatever he did because it's really working for him
5. It's written and directed by Jacob Aaron Estes.
6. He is known for The Details starring Tobey Maguire and will be directing the upcoming Rings sequel.
7. It's looking like a Scott Mechlowicz double feature right now.

"When a teen is bullied, his brother and friends lure the bully into the woods to seek vengeance."

Thoughts while I watched this.
1. Wait that is not who I thought was the bully.
2. I actually thought the bully would be Scott Mechlowicz because he sort of matches it.
3. Rocky is a pretty nice older brother.
4. So it seems everyone here has some kind of issue.
5. Target practice for what though.
6. That explains him a bit.
7. Lol so girls rehearse stuff for dates too huh?
8. He doesn't seem like THAT bad of a kid.
9. That brother is a grade A jerk.
10. I mean not only that but his name is Kile who uses an i?
11. His friend is a loser too.
12. I approve of Millie she is a good influence.
13. George is really just annoying.
14. He is spitting all into that camera.
15. Lol it's peanut butter and jelly.
16. I can't put my finger oh what George is trying to do.
17. Oops you done messed up.
18. Truth or Dare is always entertaining.
19. Of course it's okay.
20. That however is not okay dude.
21. It's all fun and games until you say something wrong.
22. You went way too far.
23. Have we all learned a lesson?
24. The acting that happens after that is just remarkable.
25. Mean Creek 2: Ghost of George
26. Okay then somebody needs to chill.
27. Yeah buddy that date was an epic fail.
28. Well now that everyone is down in the dumps I am too.
29. So what is everyone going to do now?
30. Oh man I don't think this is going to end well.
31. Well that was an interesting ending for sure.

Thoughts after I watched this.
1. I can see why so many people liked this.
2. It isn't your typical sort of revenge story.
3. The fact that everyone and every action here is very human is quite powerful.
4. Many would find this a bit slow, but that's what sets this apart from the rest.
5. It's very well acted for such young people who mostly all are still acting today.
6. The music really added to the sadness of the atmosphere.
7. If you don't like a slower artsy kind of film then I wouldn't recommend this.
8. Other than that I thought this was well worth a watch.
