Hands down THE worse movie I have ever seen in my life. Plot, direction, acting was Out Of This world (in a bad way) I do not write reviews ever nd this is not a review either, this is a Public Service message. I am bound by my Morals to let the rest of Human Race know about this movie and its affect on my DAZED hour.
NEXT.

OK, so I have been a fan of Jesse McCartney since I was a kid. So I decided to check out his newer work in the acting industry. He kind of slid off my grid as I grew up. I kind of forgot about him. Recently I heard some of his newer music and I was very impressed. I also checked out his other movie Keith. I thought he did very well in that, very well. I only knew he did music, so I decided to explore his other achievements. I saw an interview on youtube of him talking about this interactive movie called Campus Life. I decided to check it out. I viewed Campus Life on the Jumpstreet website. I watched it 2 times to make sure I didn't forget or miss anything. The site was having issues as well. So here comes the review....(dun dun duuuunnnn...) I was not impressed with Campus Life. I love Jesse but this movie was a bad move. The acting was...odd...and the ending sucked. The effects were terrible as well. It was a movie I wish I never saw, I cringed as I watched, it was just bad. I won't let this get in the way of me continuing to support Jesse through his career, but I hope he doesn't pick up a small cheap low budget film like this again.
If it was only me, it would probably be OK. Then I could see this as some kind of surreal movie experiment. But it isn't unfortunately. This is about some college students (I think) go about their daily business and stumbling into "unusual" situations where they seem to gain supernatural powers. Maybe.
One reason this isn't very clear is that the plot is horrible. The weird, surreal things are laid one upon another from the start (and I mean start after the opening sequence) where people stop reacting, beat each other up, sell stolen stuff, bully one another for no apparent reason. And the characters "act" as this is all very normal. Then there is the "acting". It's horribly over the top on all accounts. Seriously, horribly bad including every cliché in an amateur directors "How-to manual" on directing. Including the goth group clad in black. :sighs: I guess it all somewhat is explained at the end, but even so - the explanation for everyones extremely erratic behaviour doesn't make much sense. Avoid if it's available for free on cable, run like mad in another direction if your significant other suggests you see it at a theatre.

At first this movie didn't look bad, then I saw the first minute and I couldn't believe how bad this movie was. It was filled with plot holes and bad acting. I would not recommend anyone to watch this.
This film is crap! 4 teenagers run around a school for an hour and a half screaming at each other "why me, why us". no time travel, no killers, no explanation! just a cheep rip off of the 13th floor and the matrix, really that's all you get. not even a decent ending. the only reason this got made was she's martin scorsese's daughter. 0 stars and not even a good sized asteroid!

- TriviaThe director is the daughter of Martin Scorsese, who took a role in the movie. As did Scorsese's lead actor from Goodfellas, Ray Liotta.
- Alternate versionsCampus Life was originally released in 2013 on a sole proprietary website called JumpView. Rather than being shown in a traditional feature film format, the film was broken down into five characters on a timeline. Each character's story contained roughly 10, 2-5 minute segments. The idea was to tell a story through each individual characters' experiences. This version was only shown on this proprietary site and in no other outlet or format. The new 2015 version of the film is called "Campus Code" and it has been completely recut and reimagined as a traditional feature film. In addition to crafting it into a single narrative format, Campus Code has a shortened run time of 85 minutes as well as changes/additions to color, music, songs, special effects and some footage. It's slated for release this September.
