A Girl Like Her

Really this is quite powerful and if it were compulsory viewing for school children I'm sure in those schools where it was shown bullying would reduce. Not sure at which age would be ideal for the viewing.

Perhaps experts in psychology could figure this out. Probably look at the stats on what particular age group experiences the increase in bullying and go from there.

Parents need to watch it as well, though it is more difficult to make it compulsory for parents.

Well made, strong message, solid acting and an ethically important work. Well done to all those involved and I hope those that are the victims in real life get some betterment out of this.

Thanks for the learning experience.

I heard about this movie on Facebook and needed to see it right away. Something about it and the description just drew me in, and my curiosity just made me jump on it.

A movie from different angles of people who have their own cameras is definitely an interesting way of visually seeing the movie. There are other movies that do this extremely effectively too, like End of Watch the cop movie.

The story was fantastic and I felt it made a lot of great points. It will certainly speak to the bullied about what it feels like to be alone and not feel like they can talk to anyone about it and that no one could understand it.

It is a dark movie. It was not afraid to go to some surprisingly dark places. Maybe even too dark for me at times. There were parts troubling enough that I had to look away.

I would recommend this movie, but be warned that it is troubling and may not go the directions that you want it to.

Whoaaa...this was MIND BLOWING! It is based on a true story about a girl who was relentlessly bullied at school and couldn't take it any more. She and her friend filmed the bullying before she tried to take her own life. THIS SHOULD BE COMPULSORY in every school without preaching. I DARE you to not be floored!!! The acting was brilliant and the documentary style really well done. It gave a very real effect and made you feel so much more and connect with the characters. I don't know why this hasn't been more popular or well known than what it is but it deserves every star. I will definitely watch it again and tell people about it.

If you are a parent of a child in today's society over the age of 40 this segment is like a "today" version of the after school specials that we watched regarding subjects they were afraid to discuss when we were in school but better.

If you're a young parent you may feel relieved that "someone" is bold enough to tell the truth, and you already know how real this is and how it exists in school whether you were bullied or a bully. If you're a school administrator or teacher it may remind you that you are a part of the problem and/or solution. If you're presently being bullied; hopefully, this will give you the strength to talk to someone. If you're a bully cognizant of your actions hopefully this will show you the view of what your actions look like from the other side. In any event of what brings you to decide to watch this, I do believe this short film will inspire you to be active, aware, relative, honest, accountable, and supportive in whichever direction you walk. After you watch it, you'll see why I didn't give it a ten; but, I don't want this rating to be a spoiler so just watch for yourself and see how you relate to "THE" girl like her.

I attended a Catholic school and was bullied by a gang of girls for 6 years in elementary school.. Punched, pushed, kicked in the school yard in an all nun school in the 1960's. How the nuns didn't know what was going on amazes me now at 60! I look back and call them monsters, they should be outed by everyone, end the snitch stigma related by gangsta's, and show this film in every middle and high school. No one should be tormented by these monsters daily, if you see something, say something should be the tag line in our schools! Apologies, sorry are all too late for many of us, and how we can tolerate this behavior ...just shocking!
