Best material if you're teaching about BULLYING.

Perfectly pitched and written. So much to relate (and not) to. Plus the rejoicing you get through and at the end of it thanks to the rounded characters' evolution.

Yes, I'm being super biased. Who isn't.

Bullying, asenine behavior, kids with no supervision, or guidence in their life acting like morons and engaging things they are not anywhere near ready for. It shows the sad state of affairs for a of youth culture. The most striking thing is perhaps the absence of any adults. And it's not these kids fault they are like this. Whoever is responsible for them has not done their job and I suspect this movie is all tok real even though it's compacted a lot of this in an unrealistic small bubble. Social media and technology aren't helping kids like this, it's purely detrimental. It's kinda hard to get through this thing because it's very boring and annoying and lacks direction, but I think that's probably on purpose to show the chaos of the teens life. Either way, it's a depressing image of a generation without much hope that is exposed to and live through a lot of things that kids just shouldn't be and are mostly without respect, values or a future. Just sad.

I'm hardly write a review, but I feel weird why this Gondry's movie doesn't have any. He is the greatest director of the 'Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind'. So, this movie is about a bunch of school kids who just done their job and this will be their last bus ride as a school kids.Many things happen and what's fun is everything happen on the bus, love, bullies, forbidden chit-chat, family and many more in this 110 minutes movie. For me, this movie is just simple, like just an experiment of Gondry to make something different in teen movie. I love to hear their conversation,as real as their use their real name. Some scene look predictable and stupid but it's still fun, I'm enjoying myself. This unrealistic beautiful carnival!

I just saw this film. It was interesting film. I kept thinking it such a long ride. I had the feeling they were bused from Long Island. I kept thinking that these kids would have hidden some guns in the bushes so when they got mad at each other. Someone would have gotten shot. I thought that most of the kids are in jail or dead, I watched it on tape and because they didn't go hear some of the dialogue.

I know many are shocked at this film but I can say first hand that not all public high school kids are like that and not all high school kids that misbehave dismiss further education. I rode the bus my entire education from elementary to high school in Washington DC and I can say school is very interesting but on the bus it's the adults that were my entertainment, not the kids.

Also, I lived in Washington Heights in Manhattan and formerly Bed-Stuy Brooklyn. I'm currently in Jersey. They are in the Bronx. It's a tough burough to grow up in. I believe the movie stayed pretty true of life a kid from the projects. I don't know if it's true for the bus ride (I only took the bus in Queens and Manhattan. I take the subway mostly) but I don't need to. They are kids being kids and I love it. It brought back memories I almost forgot. Everything was relatable from the couple loving and fighting to the jokes to the unfortunate deaths. This is high school. This is life.

I got out alive and ironically joined the Army lol but went on to college and own my own venture as a stylist and a designer so every kid has a dream big or small. Half the time it's not the school system, it's the social surroundings, the culture, the family household, and the lack thereof.

All in all, it was a true depiction of what it's like to be young and free.
