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.

I think it was one of the most appealing plot I have ever seen. It's in my native language so, it is pretty easy to understand and pretty hard to watch. It is a difficult movie about Kaspar and Joosep who are being teased and harassed at school. I was harassed a little too during my school years and i feel total sympathy for the two main characters.

I really loved the camera work, I have always loved Estonian camera work and the editing. Raw, tragic and lifelike. Ilmar Raag has done a great job by showing what is going on in schools nowadays. It's not only in Estonia, USA, or England for that matter, it's going on all around the world - school violence.

I don't want to spoil the ending, but it was pretty predictable and the plot is easy to catch, nevertheless it is a movie that is not easy on you. If you have been a situation familiar to this, not so radical even, you know what Kaspar and Joosep felt.

And as Kaspar said, It's about pride.

9,3/10 :)

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.

Almost every class in high school knows one: a lonely child that is being picked on by everyone. Unable to give proper resistance against the different kids in the class that one person becomes the victim of just about everything. Most of the time it ends up OK in the end, but sometimes it goes to a point of no return and then it ends in full flexed drama. This film is about such a drama.

Starting out at the point where a kid is picked out as being the one to pick on the events that happen happen in just the right pace. The film switches between fueling the fire and licking the wounds, and later between fueling the fire and planning the counter strike. It becomes impossible not to feel a certain level of sympathy for the guy, even though his actions are unforgivable. And that is why this film works well. Klass is a harsh message and I think it should be shown to all kids in high schools to show them the darkest sides of peer pressure and the effects of it on some people.

9 out of 10 difficult lessons

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.
