  i saw the movie. i wonder if Gus Van Sant even went to high school or just read about the different cliques that exist and made sure that every stereotype was present.

  i'm indifferent on this movie. it was totally unrealistic i think in terms of representing a real high school, it must have been a class of about 14 people. the shots were too long and cliche, but i did like the structure. not one of the characters was developed enough for me to give a shit about anyone, and i didn't like the way he sort of blamed video games for the thing.

  Van Sant is trying too hard i think. it's probably supposed to come out as an 'artistic' movie but in my opinion it was a little too shallow.
