To me, this movie is perfection.
... View MoreAbsolutely brilliant
... View MoreThis movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
... View MoreIt really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
... View MoreThis chilling disturbing and in some ways almost funny film deserves 9/10. The color days were used to show how back in the past how Hillary and Bonnie had so much ......well "Fun" in the past hanging out. And The black and white film used it present time how the "fun" they had brought them into trouble. And also being seperated from one another. I saw this movie late one night on Sundance. It had wonderful acting. I loved it and yet was disturbed by it at the same time.Hillary had already told about how she was abused as a kid. And Bonnie was kinda Hyper Active Disorder.Well you know what they say "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!"Why did I not give it a 10/10. I loved everything except....where was the ending? If what i saw was the ending I didnt like it. Give it more UMTH! Than .....whoops cant tell! I say see this movie whenever you get a chance. But you HAVE to see it begining to end. Or else youll miss out on the fun!
... View MoreAlicia Witt is a great actress, in my opinion. This movie brought back the nostalgia of my teenage youth. I remember what it was like being a mischief back in my years. The ending is not typical Hollywood, and I definitely recommend it!
... View MoreI saw this film at about 2am over a year ago on Channel 4 in the UK. Whilst very disturbing and depressing, the direction and concepts behind the film are nothing less than amazing; making the viewing very compelling indeed. The acting is incredibly intense, making the subject matter all the more uncomfortable - it came as no shock to read in the end-credits details of consultant psychologists on the film. I'd never heard of the film until I accidentally tuned into it - the reviews that accompanied it in various magazines rated it as 1 and 2 stars (out of 5) respectively - a sorry comment on the closed-mindedness and inability to face the more uncomfortable aspects of reality that can be found in some professional reviewers. This is an amazing film - if you are feeling relatively stable, go and see it as soon as possible.
... View MoreThe film is split between flashbacks of a certain day and black and white scenes of the two girls in a detention centre. By seeing this we know the girls have committed a crime and we watch to find out what they did. We find out that the two girls never knew each other before the day they did what they did. They were loners who had never really had a friend before and they just connected. On this day the girls knocked on an old woman's door saying that one of them was ill and they needed to use the phone. Then they killed the old woman. They went back to one of the girls' houses and discussed doing it again the next day, as no one could ever know who killed the old lady. They get caught and don't have the chance to commit another crime. In the detention centre the girls are being kept apart because they bring out the worst in each other but by now they love each other and can't live without each other.The film is very similar to the excellent `Heavenly Creatures' but deserves to be recognised in its own light. I rate it 10/10.
