Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Steineded How sad is this?
Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
Juana 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.
JamieWJackson I give this one 6/10; it kept me interested and was pretty good, but could have been better in some ways.One thing I've seen in some of the other reviews here is that some viewers were confused over how the perception of Christie's guilt developed. *** SPOILER BEGIN *** I think that was explained to a fair degree by the list of things cited to Christie by the principal. A bit too close in the pool one time, a little too friendly when the car was fixed another time, that sort of thing. Those types of "little things" can add up. Now, you might object that it didn't seem realistic to you, but the concept is viable; all that's required is a teacher who is too naive and then a PR blitz by influential people, like the boy's family. Then people can start remembering those "little things" which they might have brushed aside before. *** END OF SPOILER *** It could happen. How well that possibility was depicted here can be debated, but it is possible. To improve this movie, a few things could have been made clearer to the audience, and some of the supporting characters could have been more multidimensional. I do think Berkley did well and disagree with those who characterized her performance here as lacking depth. I thought she reacted very credibly to each development and I empathized with her, even though the character's naiveté in getting into the whole mess in the first place was annoying. Hey, nobody's perfect.
kari-osterhagen This should have been a 15 minute movie. I gave it an extra star because the movie did not actually cause me physical pain.What school on the planet would allow a student to behave the way Josh did, and get away with it? Furthermore, why was the principal so creepy? Her facial expression and tone of voice were disturbing.Where did those police detectives get their training? Why did Josh sound like a serial killer throughout the whole movie? Is there something wrong with his voice?How did he know where his Chem teacher lived? And how did he get in?This story stunk,in my opinion. I didn't even want to waste my time watching the end. I came here and read about it instead. I can see I didn't miss out on anything.
Robert J. Maxwell It fills in a familiar template at LMN. Elizabeth Berkley is a friendly and happily married chemistry teacher at a fancy high school. She loves her job and her students, bringing the class small presents and volunteering to tutor students like handsome Corey Sevier who are lagging behind.The problem is that Sevier has more on his mind than just ionic bonding. He begins to put moves on her that she firmly rejects. Sevier is a persistent kid, though, and used to getting his way with girls. Accordingly he winds up assaulting her when she's home alone. She goes to the police.Need we spell the rest out? Hell itself is visited upon the victim. The good-looking and charming Sevier claims that SHE accosted HIM and invited her to her home and encouraged his advances. The police believe him, not her. They Mirandize her, cuff her, and force her to do the perp walk down the school's hallways. She's suspended from her job.Not only do the police not believe her. Her principal has doubts too. Her LAWYER's belief in her innocence is limited in its depth. Her husband is wary, lacking in understanding, and offers ineffective support.Throughout the ordeal, Elizabeth Berkley is staunch and resolute, even as her social world collapses around her. Even as she's referred to repeatedly as a "sexual predator" along the lines of some other famous teachers who couldn't keep their hands off their students.First off, I don't want to hear of any more boys being named Corey. Or any girls named Jillian or Gillian either. I'm sick of it. Then, too, let us drop the use of the word "predator." Let's reserve it for lions and tigers. Not bears, though, because bears are omnivores like humans. While it's true that bears love to catch and eat salmon, given half a chance, they're too fond of blackberries to be predators.Second, we see Corey Sevier's family "doing PR" against Berkley. They give their story to the press, hire great lawyers, and appear on a TV show like Oprah. Berkley, who is now pregnant to add to the general sense of distress, nurses her grievances in private. Well, this is pretty hypocritical. The movie condemns people for watching a talk show on which guests discuss their travails, while at the same time this very movie is nothing more than a dramatization of such a tale.Third, there's nothing wrong with gossip per se. It's a valuable tool of social control and it contributes the community's shared data base. It only becomes destructive when its course is changed or when there is too much of it. In that sense it's like water. We need it. But we need it a glass at a time, or a bath tub at a time. We don't need a flood of it.Right now, in my opinion, there is far too much of it, a raging torrent of it. It sloshes out of our television every day. It fills the magazine racks at supermarket check out counters. Will Jenny Dump Brad? Angie's Dirty Little Secret! It has bled into our political process. Some years ago, Admiral Bobby Inman, a decent and thoughtful man, was offered appointment to a high office in the executive branch but turned it down because he felt the confirmation process had become undignified -- and it has. A nominee for an appointment might be a fan of the San Francisco 49ers. Well, we all know that San Francisco is a hot bed of inversion. Okay. Tell us, General, have you ever had a homosexual experience? The whole culture is crippled by its tabloid sensibility. The end of our civilization may be at hand.So why did I bother watching this passion play? I wanted to see if I might be wrong.
