GamerTab That was an excellent one.

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Manuel Groesch What I liked about the movie: I was personally affected: I was a bit of a Joosep during some of my school years (being good at French and liking ballads didn't really help my standing). I thus could very much relate to the feeling of powerlessness and hopelessness and it brought some of these feelings back. However now I can look at that time from the point of my life I am in now which makes it all less terrible - The depiction of complete injustice that eats at the audience and hopefully makes those that help in producing such injustice realize what is going on.The troubled father-son relationship and the inability to communicate. Again something I can relate to very well - The movie has the right length to tell its story. It is never rushed but also never drags plot point out for too long - By the end of the movie I was rooting for them to start shooting. A film must be well-made for me to want someone to commit a horrible act. I felt almost relieved when the inevitable finally happened - The inability of the adults to act and to understand the gravity of the situation. The reactions of the teachers and parents are abysmal in many respects.Let's be real: I watched a movie in Estonian.. I felt really arty after that ;) What I didn't like about the movie: Character development is a little weak, especially with Kaspar. If the 7-day plot isn't meant to be symbolic, for Kaspar to turn from respected clique-member to cold-blooded killer in 7 days seems implausibleThe shooting scene seems implausible in a lot of aspects: why don't any of the students who clearly see the gun when they enter the school say anything, why does Kaspar continue to shoot when he realizes as he says himself: "I killed a girl from the 8th grade"The acting wasn't on par but as I understand most of them were not professional actors which is a symbolic touch that makes the below-par acting forgivable Some of the humiliation seems a bit exaggerated especially as some of the attackers don't really have motivation to do these things and to go to yet another level of humiliation every single day All in all: A very good movie with some character development, plot and acting flaws, which still deserves it's 9 rating because of what it made me feel and how it reminded me of my past and because of the direct and mind-boggling way it manages to depict injustice.

Ali Habbabeh watching this movie will really hurt you. It's not made to win awards and s..t it is made to hurt u and fills you with anger toward bullies It reminds me of some nice friends who got bullied in the class for no reason. it's amazing work. A must see wallah. the plot may be a little expected but as i said, it's not made to satisfy a large audience. just keep in mind to not watch before you sleep or you will not be happy with your dreams. I am really amazed as well by the camera work. it is terrific let alone the back ground music. from now on i will start searching for Estonia's films because this one gave a good image about the film industry there

José Carlos Matos Holy mother! It doesn't matter what kind of person you are; if you watch this movie, you will experience the same feelings as the characters: despair, depression, anger, self-disregard, fear and courage.During the movie I cried for the sorrow of a certain character, while hating the other for his actions. Every scene seems to bring a new feeling and it's played so natural as if it was happening 5 feet away from you.Beside that, this film will not force you into old movie clichés, or unreal life heroes or acts of bravery and strenght we're used to see is most of western cinema. This is why this has such a great impact on the viewer: it's real!I don't speak estonian, but the actors, despite very young went perfectly.

g-white723 I just watched this film last night, and although the subject matter was depressing, I think it was factually accurate of the type of stupid behaviour we now see in classrooms all over the world. The main character Joosep is an introverted teenager that doesn't get along with his classmates to such an extent that they regularly pick on him. It is quite excruciating to watch the regular bullying that takes place, and the futility of his situation. At the beginning, the film states that this story is based in truth, which is quite sad. What angered me, and I think is a flaw in the film, is that there is no overt criticism of the school, or the teachers where this drama takes place. The teachers are so unaware of what is happening that it is quite ridiculous. The bullies are portrayed as evil, but for me the teachers are just as bad.Having already watched the very good film 'Elephant', I new quite early on how this drama would unfold, as it is very much the same kind of story, but still this film held my attention to the bitter end. I thought the kids were really good especially the performance of the bullies ( I can't remember their names but one character was called Anders). They reminded me a lot of characters from my own school days. In the end it is a matter of honour that ends the story. In my opinion, this film is more accurate than Elephant but it doesn't have the dramatic impact, as you can guess the ending very early on.
