Most of the spectators will look at the film and say something as: I've seen it before/I've guessed the ending/the work is imperfect!

But the main thing is the other. It is a real story about real people coming across real problems. The thrilling story about insatiable and cruel youth. The story that makes you tremble.

But it is not the story about teens' relation. The story tells about adults being deaf to the problems of youth. As the teacher made that saying "I have nothing else to tell you". The parents that can not believe or just understand the problems of their children and especially trust them. The movie is not just a cruel story. That is a warning to the adults: beware and make best to predict.

All of us will watch this, talk a bit and forget about the movie. I'd force all the adults to watch it. For them just to understand.

It leaves you crying and thinking about what is happening to this crazy world. A powerful movie and it has nothing in common with "Elephant" because this one has nearly everything a good movie must have. Starting from the plot, actors playing and cameraman's work. And the music is wonderful-it's ideal for this kind of film. There are aggressive industrial melodies and they collide brilliantly with the tragic music like the one in the ending.

There are a lot of movies that leave you with the feeling that the "victim" in the film could have done something about his/her terrible situation. But here you feel that it's impossible to fight when you face total violence. You only have to fight for your honour and then you die being free. Of course, somebody can say that Joosep shouldn't have positioned himself as a cry-baby and could do something about that all. Well, I must say that all the people differ and good people not necessarily have to get used to the s**t around them. Something should be done with this world(I don't know what). The situation when you see only evil around you and you have no exit is terrifying and boys have got in that trap. Things like these happen everywhere in the world and that is what makes you lay crying after the movie-the feeling of this is shown very well here. 9 out of 10.

In the end, I must say that Estonia is deservedly a European country if they make such films and there are people who can look at the world from point like this. Unfortunately, we are still far from you. Everybody has problems like violence in schools and so on but still nobody can get rid of this. But if you throw light upon such problems,it's already a big step forward. When I say it all I don't mean America that makes violence a religion. I'm only speaking about Europe now.

So, I watched this movie after hearing about it on many different occasions. I have always liked movies about teenage life, especially when they are cooked correctly. And this is such case. Movie perfectly shows the power struggles, that may occur in every class. And how cruel can teenagers be. I personally have been in a situation, where most of my class is against me. So I could easily associate my self with main character.

At some points of watching it, the movie really got to me, because my hands started shaking, and I got shivers on my back. Just because, I knew how painful such attitude can be.

I'd really like to give kudos to operator, and all the actors, that were working on this movie. Camera work always showed perfect angles, so people could easily follow the story. But all the new actors, that were working on this project, played really good, without hyping their performance, what usually happens for new actors.

This movie should be shown in every school around the world, because it shows where can cruelty lead.

First of all I didn't have any high expectations for this one. OK school violence - we all have seen that, right? But do we actually remember it? How there always has been black sheep in any class room? How mean can we all be? For me this movie was the awakening who am I also have been and how embarrassing it now seems. But how many of us were brave enough to differ and step-up against this kind of unfairness. And do we had a choice/ or knowledge that the choice exist? This movie is highly recommended because of its honesty, bluntness and most of all - just incredible storyline...

Vote: no question 10/10

Its been a while since I saw a movie that left my guts so unsettled. I have seen several graphic movies about rape, terrorism, cruelty, hatred. Some of them have managed to touch my soul and move me to tears. But none of them prepared me for this movie. The only movie that probably came close to making me feel so horrible was Chandi Bar. This movie will leave you with a lot of anger and hatred.

We have seen the horror of gun possession with minors in movies like Elephant and American History X. But this movie goes beyond irresponsible and erratic use of a gun. This movie projects basic human feelings and the results of mob mentality and repressiveness anger. Most viewers can relate to this movie because they have all experienced school violence, either first hand or otherwise.

About the movie itself, the direction, cinematography and acting are all A-grade. You always feel at the center of each and every scene. This is what the movie does best. It involves you. And when you are done watching it, it will make you think about it and discuss it. It'll make you think of what's wrong with our education system and what can be done to prevent something like this from happening.

It kinda falls into the category of movies which make you lose faith in humanity. Don't get me wrong. We are capable of kindness too. But it is equally true that we humans can be very cruel and we should not ignore this facet of our basic instinct. There are many interventions that could've prevented the ending that the movie projected. But the reason the movie hit me so hard is coz' of the way it ended.

I would definitely recommend this movie to all those movie buffs who aren't afraid of watching movies with serious subjects. Stay away from it immediately before sleep time. This film will leave you so unsettled; you may not be able to sleep for next couple of hours.

As for me, I wonder if I'll ever gather my guts to see this great film again.
