The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Sadly to say the movie reflects a problem that still 2014 is common in schools and other communities. The movie maker has not just brilliantly shown how the main character experiences the situation. But also brought forward an aspect of the inner workings of ones mind that is exposed to these situations.. To accomplish this with what till a start looks like a low budget movie.. It's nothing less than brilliant. I for one wish that this movie was around when i was young and was experiencing events not quite as harsh as these, but still. If this movie had been around, maybe one could have gathered more courage from it. I believe that it is right in time and could be of good use to a lot of people. So I hope people will spread this movie to people experiencing these problems.. Anyway.. Good Job on bringing us a great movie!
