A good movie

Even though it is a rather obscure feature, for some reasons, I was really eager to check it out. Well, the whole thing turned to pretty good. Indeed, the directing was really solid and, above all, all the children involved gave some really impressive performances.  Yet, the whole thing didn’t manage to completely blow me though. Maybe it was due to the fact that I saw ‘Bully’ before. Indeed, both movies were really similar as they were dealing with some teenagers and how they managed to get revenge from their bully but ‘Bully’ was actually better in my opinion. Another small issue with this movie was that it was actually slightly too short in my opinion. Indeed, the whole thing felt pretty intense but, somehow, the ending felt flat and I think they could have developed this tale a little bit more. Still, it wasn't a big deal as it was a chilling and fascinating story.  For Jacob Estes, this movie was definitely a strong directing debut and even though many, including myself, expected a lot from this guy, during the next 10 years, he would only direct the really obscure ‘The Details’ starring Tobey Maguire. Anyway, to conclude,  even though this movie wasn’t really flawless, it was still a strong drama and I think it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
