Awesome Movie

an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

I was bullied from four years old until I was 17 years old. The only reason it stopped was because I grew to be 6'4" and weighed 220 lbs. I contemplated suicide at 10 or 11 years old because of the bullying I received. I grew up in a small town on the outskirts of a big city. I wasn't a bad looking kid, and I was athletic but stopped playing sports in Junior High. It was difficult playing sports with your tormentors also on the team. I started fighting back physically when I was 14. Probably because I was 6'1" at 14, and taller and bigger than everyone else. Why was I bullied? I was sensitive which to my bullies equated to me being a homosexual. I am not gay. Never was but they were taught that sensitive boys are gay, apparently. And being gay in a small town with a Christian church on every corner (literally) teaching the sins of everything they disagree with and they should fight against; that's their excuse for spreading their beliefs. At least where I grew up. Also, I lived in a primary white town where the majority of whites were racists. I wasn't racist. Also, another reason as to why I was bullied and not just by other kids but adults, too. It was worse from adults because they were the ones I should have been able to go to but wasn't. I have Dyscalculia. They barely even knew what dyslexia was where I grew up. All I ever heard was "You're not trying hard enough". Even though I excelled in other subjects they took me out of those classes and put me into a "special" class for unruly children who just couldn't behave. Since I wasn't trying hard enough in math that equated to me being "unruly". Junior High was a bit different: they just didn't care. I skipped three months of eighth grade and still was passed onto the next grade. The educational system I went through produced an education not worth learning, anyway.I do have happy memories of my childhood. Those days that were good, I remember them. The problem with films like this is they only show one side of the person. Oh, they did add a girl role, a love interest, but while I had those in my youth, it wasn't a catalyst if they didn't work out. I found that to be nonsense. Especially since she wasn't an integral part of my life. Also, a kid shooting up a school, well...he must be mentally ill, like schizophrenic as the kid in this obviously is. I think society is schizophrenic. I mean it preaches good morals yet at the same time promotes and instigates hatred of others different than the majority. I survived, if one calls it survival. I don't show much affection toward others unless in private. I don't like to be touched, by anyone, and if I allow it I have to give one consent to do so. I remember recently last year a cousin of mine died and one of our aunts' came up to hug me and I stepped back. And everyone is looking at me in dusgust; I'm the bad guy even though she and everyone else knows I don't like to be touched; especially hugged. I've only hugged my mother once in my adult life. We're seen as the bad guy; and some of us turn out that way but we're all not bad. The mentality of "No one gave me a break so why should I give you one?" but we're not all like that. Some of us actually grow up to talk about, share, and even be productive but films like this just say that the person must have been mentally ill. Or, it was his poor upbringing, or his mother and/or father had something to do with it, or it was this one particular kid at school...etc., etc., I had more than one childhood bully, and some of them were adults; some were well respected in the community. The people who don't recognize who the bully is: it's probably them. Even those standing on the sidelines and doing nothing: that's a type of bullying.While, fictionally speaking, this film was good for what it was, I felt it was just one of those films about someone who read about bullying and then took the bullies perspective rather than the one being bullied.I wonder if the makers of films like this were one of three people growing up: 1. The bullied 2. The bully or 3. The ones who watched from the sidelines and did nothing? I'm thinking the latter.

Growing up can be tough. It is even more tough as men when we are sensitive, and things can just get to us so much. Bullying tactics might be enough to have us cry and just have different meltdowns of sorts. I believe this is the core theme of this movie.In life we have challenges and we can rise above them and be better then them or we can let them crush our soul.Watching bullying movies can be hard for me and yet so relatable although the movie is only about bullying in part I believe it to be one of the central themes. It makes me angry inside seeing bullying but for me I just sympathize with it so much due to my own experiences.In life we have to be tough but kids do not always know how. In small town living there is not much to do but people have fun doing what people have always been known to do.Very interesting directing, use of filter, acting, writing, the story flows in an interesting way, and the topics throughout the film are extremely relevant.There are things with the film I will not talk about, as the story changes in interesting ways throughout the film.I bumped into this on the "trending now" section on Netflix streaming and I was glad I did. It also has Sam from True Blood in it who I always liked. He plays a real masculine no nonsense type dad.

Well done movie about a subject that is affecting everyone in the US, whether it's in HS, college or the workplace. Rather than being a 'Columbine rip-off', it's a detailed look into the mind of someone who might or might not erupt into a mass murder spree.Well acted, filmed, directed and scored, the filmmakers should be proud that they made a serious treatment of this subject, and not a comic book version like "Almost Mercy", a film we saw right before White Rabbit.Ironically, "Almost Mercy" received a higher rating on IMDb than this film, probably because it had more gore, violence and sensationalism than this film contained. While Almost Mercy had a few nice comedic touches, you better hope you're not around when someone decides to follow the advice that film seemed to be giving out...

This film was totally refreshing from all the big studio movies i saw recently. Never thought that with a small budget so many things can be achieved.It is filled with amazing cinematography, which captures the atmosphere and sets the mood with every scene, all pleasing to the eyes. Camera work was brilliant from many angles and close ups.Directing done with a huge precision and professionally made transitions.Beautiful musical score - visually combined with the film makes it a joy listening to.Screenplay was also great which is translated into the film with good pacing and performances which all felt natural and were enjoyable to watch. I was never a big fan of indie films, the reason i saw White Rabbit is mainly because of it's subject, but i got so much more. A big surprise.
