NOT a movie I'm here to compliment or praise or recommend by any means. This was one of the worst pieces of crap I ever had the misfortune of paying money to see, thankfully I didn't have to pay twice the price for the privilege of seeing it in a theater room.
There are just so many places where the storyline sucks and everything in between is so unbelievably baaaaad. And you know, you can get into some of the dumbest and longest running arguments with people over things from this movie.
For example. Did the teacher deserve to get hit? I say okay, yeah, maybe he was being a jerk by mentioning Kale's dead father. BUT, let's take a look at this piece by piece.
1. Kale already had two offenses against him already, did he REALLY think committing assault against his teacher would have no repercussions?
2. The teacher may have been wrong for saying 'what would your father think?' but there is no law against mentioning somebody's dead parent there IS a law against punching somebody's lights out because you don't like what they say.
3. The teacher only said it because Kale has been slacking off all year, and we can get that he's still feeling guilty about his father's death but you know what? He's going to SCHOOL and at SCHOOL you have an obligation to do the work that the teachers hand to you. If his mother would be 'oh poor me, I lost my husband' for a whole YEAR and go to work but not do any work, they would be telling her to either get her act together, or clear her things out and go find a job somewhere else. But the mother, who lost her husband, is NOT sitting around the house all day doing nothing, she's not going to her place of employment and doing nothing, she is going to work and doing her JOB, because her husband's dead, somebody has to be the breadwinner now and put food on the table and pay the bills, and if she can do that, he can pay attention during class.
Now, something else I have engaged in MANY arguments with the fans of this movie with...is Kale's mother unfair for expecting him to do a little housework while he's sitting on his butt at home all day every day while she has to go out and make a living? Hell no! Guess what? His actions are costing her $12 every single day of his arrest, he doesn't have a job, he's not in school, he's not contributing to anything except her bills, it's the least he can do to get off his lazy poor-me (but he's got enough energy and life to play video games all day) butt and do the laundry and clean his room.
Now, onto my other annoynaces with this movie. The slut next door, and I choose to call her that because nobody who has two brain cells in their head is going to believe that the whole neighborhood isn't watching as she's standing around topless in from of a 10 foot window with no blinds, shades or curtains drawn or closed.
The retarded friend, and as stupid as he is through the WHOLE movie can we really call him anything else? He has the most fucked up sense of humor I know, they suspect their next door neighbor is a serial killer, so what's he do? Drives his friend into a full panic and then pretends he's been murdered for a laugh. He deserved that shovel to the head.
Which brings me to another point, if your best friend is screaming his head off about something pertaining to said serial killer neighbor, WHY would you just be standing around with a blank look on your face? I'd be hopping over that banister and zipping up the stairs to find out what the hell was going on now.
And then the idiotic cop, you know, I get that cops are supposed to be the worthless, useless idiots in movies, but if they're going to be of so little help, I say why bother having them in at all? After the point where the cops come out and they find it's not a dead woman, but a dead deer in the garage, that should've been the end of Officer Asshole.
And last but not least, there is NO way a big fat middle-to-old aged man can pass himself off as a little tiny skinnny white broad, squeeze his fat ass into her little tiny car and convincingly look like she's driven away...and also, there's no way he could have a moat in that house and nobody would know.
But that's just me, what's everybody else think?
