Poetic.........simply.......Poetic..............
Asking the question here; "Do you actually believe in God", although its a stupid question, i guess that was on the mind of alex and christian. The movie is based on a true story, which is something that very few flash movies tackle. Not only do i want to give this a 5 for ingenious storyline and novelty, but i have to give this a 5, cause its simply a pure reminder of what any of us are capable of, especially if we have GUNS!!!
not bad
wow i watched this video like at 3 in the morning it was really crazy and yet touching at the same time. definately one to see
Masterpiece.
One of you guys mention in the special features that you'd seen Elephant, the indie flick directed by Gus Van Sant, and that you really didn't want this to be like that. Well, don't worry. I've seen Elephant too, and I thought it very disappointing.
I would rather watch this flash any day. More effort and class has gone into this than in any single frame of GVS's film.
Some amazing techniques here - split-screen was cool, especially the way it's kinda only split between the characters and not the backgrounds.
I also had fun spotting all the different movie posters. All these small details add up to a very real feel.
I gave you a 5 for violence, I dunno why but it felt wierd to give you a ten. Those were real kids who died, I can't celebrate in graphic interpretation of that in the same way I could in a horror anime or any other fictional violence. Not long before Columbine, were I used to live in Scotland there was a town not far from me where an adult walked into a primary school (Grade School for US) and shot an entire class full of kids and their teacher. I don't think I could watch a flash movie based on that.
A provocative 10 overall.
Masterpiece
A beautiful movie which managed to really impact the horror of the Columbine massacre with its music, graphics and presentation a must see.
Welcome to our wonderful, wonderful life.
Gotta love how people act in this country, how they act all around.
Columbine happened when i was very little. When I got older, I saw 'Bowling for Columbine' and wound up revisiting the tragedy, and chills went up and down my spine at how real it was, how it could happen anywhere, anytime...
And how the two who caused it were, in strange ways, similar to me.
They didn't have to do it, they only had one or two months left before they graduated. but under pressure, we crack and break. not everybody can hold fast, can hold on. They didn't.
I only blame them for killing others... I don't blame them for losing their calm.
Yet, nobody seems to have learned their lesson from this incident. Some, but not nearly enough.
