Flower Boy

This film brought me right back to being in high school and all the torment and frustration of dealing with bullying and the feeling of helplessness and despair that brings with it. The film deals with the topic brilliantly- making you feel for the characters involved and what they're going through. The characters feel so realistic and you really feel like you know them and I think everyone can relate to the film in their own way, whether it be through their own experience or someone they know.

Everyone needs to watch this film- it's a brilliant portrayal of real life and what it can be like for a lot of people who experience being bullied. It encourages empathy and kindness and consequences of bullying and how that can impact others.

I think this film is a slightly unrealistic view with good intentions. The actions of the victim become predictable ludicrous EG the bullying victim continually transits through a derelict factory where his tormentors hang out... The monologues given from the various actors in the process are over sentimental with whimsicle music designed to elicit emotions... But the manipulation of the viewer is a little bit too obvious. It's not a bad film it's just not great... And lastly its frustrating to watch it and not see the gang get a good hiding... Just a nasty reminder of the the trash that think they rule the UK estates..

I'm assuming most of the reviews have been written by the cast.

It had more of a look and feel of a school project, than a movie.

The acting is poor from most other than the lead bully & flower boy, who give decent performances.

I thought the soundtrack was good & the ending was rather infuriating - but I understand why it ended that way for impact.

[5/10]

In this film you see a young man bullied by a girl gang ultimately leading to extreme actions. A very emotional and hard hitting story with some Violent scenes but not over graphic. This film not only deals with the effects of bullying but the struggles faced when standing up to bullying or trying to stop it. It also subtly show that sometimes the bully themself need help.

Fantastic cast giving a great performance ... I challenge you not to cry at this film ... Fully recommend this film with possibly a PG rating.

This film really stands out from the usual narratives of today, its realism is really something else. Through-out I was laughing and crying and there's reasons id definitely watch it again.
