Get ready, and hold on to your hats people

Suicide is not often a subject Hollywood would take on, unless it is part of a action flick or if its done by some sort of hero to save the world.

I have often found this subject to be taboo, where Hollywood makers take foreign movies, re-make them and if there is suicide in the movie, they change the story to... suit a wider audience.

Growing up in todays society is not easy. Older generations might say it was not easy for them either but lets face it, todays youth are having a bit more obstacles to face. Obstacles our parents never had to worry about. How many school shootings did we have in the 60s and 70s and how much better is todays education system from back then? This movie draws us these factors and issues besides the everyday-Hollywood-teen-movie drug and alcohol issues. I think we have had plenty of that.

As you may already read, this is a movie about a group of teenagers who decide to commit suicide. We are taken on a journey, where we get to know each character and the issues facing them.

I really recommend this movie for everyone. This movie is very open and blunt and all though I have seen more gore in action movies this felt more real where you sometimes forget that its only a movie and not something you just downloaded form YouTube.

Not for the faint hearted and deferentially for parent and educators.
