A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

I used to love seeing this show as a kid on the MTV/MTV2 line-ups along side shows like Wonder Showzen, Viva La Bam, Homewreaker and many others. High School Stories gives us the real life accounts of former high school students who pulled big pranks on their schools; some silly, some funny and others are just weird! Some of their stories ranged from switching the things in one classroom out with the ones from the class next to it, bringing live farm animals in, and streaking during a football game.I don't know if they still air this, but it would be nice to see again. High School Stories is what got me excited to enter high school as a little kid, hoping we'd be on the show for pulling the biggest prank in the history of our town.The show gets a 10/10 for me. It's always fun to see what kids these days pull on their peers and teachers!

As I reviewed your comment, I realized when you speak about how stupid and mindless high school students are you are really speaking about yourself since you don't know how to spell or use proper English. "aloud to graduate" please, it should be "allowed", students "steel" things??? - What are they Superman?? How about "steal" things. Students behaving badly is just as inexcusable as students proving that they have wasted their opportunity to learn when it was presented to them. You should be embarrassed to post any comments with such poor spelling and misuse of the English language. Please, take the time to stay in school and actually pay attention in English class. Don't rely on the spell checker since it will not pick up these types of errors. Need I go on??
