Aug 31, 2018 A Dutch film about bulling at high school. The book of Dutch writer Carry Slee is much better at the struggle the bystander has when he witness all the bulling and his roll in it.

The story shows how bullying can drive a kid down the wrong path and what happens when others allow it to happen. The ending was very tragic.

This movie is kind of similar, but deals on a different issue. Absolutely an important movie that discloses the most common trouble faced by the physically weak students, especially loners who were targeted by the bully boys. It was based on the book 'Regret!'. That is why we need more novel adaptation that deliver the messages to the younger generation. The story was narrated from the perspective of a high school student David. He also a member of the band called 'Point Out!'. David in not a boy who interfere with others affairs, like a quiet one he's focused on his studies and other activities. He has a crush on his classmate Vera, and so she's on him, but they never expressed to each others. In between their secret affection, a fellow mate called Jochem comes into the scene. He's fat and have no friends, which mean an easy prey for the tyrant of the class. As the school days progress Jochem makes friends with David and Vera, individually. He begins to spend some time with them, but that does not solve his problems. With a little misunderstanding between the three, the story reveals what they had failed to recognize, the seriousness of the situation. ''You should drink water instead. It's healthy. And it doesn't stain.'' Recently kind of I'm attracted to the Dutch movies. Saw some of the best movies and every time with the new movies my interest and expectations on them are growing. So that is how I came up with this movie, an awesome movie. Well, this movie theme was good, a very good movie to educate school and college students about what is right and wrong. Like you know by now it was about bullying, the movie displays what had to be shown. With the blend of little hide-and-seek romance track and music in few parts. Bullying is fun for some, but it is a crime, especially if it ends in an unexpected way. To create such trouble the story takes time to advance that kind of looks a drag in the tale. Well written screenplay, which concentrated around three characters. Each of them were so good in their respective roles. This kind of message movie is what I expect from Hollywood, because Hollywood movies can reach all the corner of the earth. I hope dubbed or remake version will do justice to the truth the movie tried to tell. A movie not to be missed, especially if you a parent to the teenagers. See more Jul 20, 2014 O desenrolar da história é meio lento mas a mensagem é direta e clara sobre os perigosos e consequências do bullying. Me lembrou um pouco de Die Welle. Apesar de ser um pouco complicado assistir ao filme com o áudio original, visto que ele é em holandês, vale a pena o trabalho extra, a tradução tira a intensidade/verdade do filme.

Perhaps this flick is targeted at teens, the subject of bullying has been put in a very easy, over-simplified way, stereotypical yet predictable. Otherwise, might have been more inspiring. To me, after all, everyone has a part in it- even the victim himself. See more Read all reviews
