Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch
Wordiezett So much average
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
jamirosmajic This is a true Dutch Hallmark and shows us that this small country can deliver a very intelligent and yet touching film. The actors display an outstanding performance, even though the majority of the cast consists of young aspiring actors. No but seriously, this is so bad that it's brilliant. I have great respect for Carry Slee, who even though she can't write, made so much money of utter bullshit. It's amazing. Even for a children story/film this is horrible and totally inaccurate. Ride that dragon Carry and Carry us to oblivious rip offs. THEY MADE 7 FILMS OUT OF HER LIST OF BAD PRE-TEEN LITERATURE AND THEY ALMOST SELL EVERY TIME!!!She must be some kind of God.Amen.
keesvaneshk Poorly directed film. There's never any real drama. Everything feels stiff and scripted. Example: when Melissa arrives in an ambulance at the hospital, the nurse tells Jordi he can't join the hospital crew in the elevator. Dead words. Jordi should have been trying hard to get into the elevator with the medical staff. After all he's very concerned about Melissa! Another example: when Melissa's mother blames her husband for his daughter's disappearance, he calmly replies "oh, so all my fault". Any father would have exploded at such an accusation coming from his wife!I'm sure a better director would have been able to get better performances from these promising actors.
fromwalking This is a film noir in my opinion. A drama about young people (16-18) and it reflects the problems they have these day's: either you belong to a certain group or you don't. In some groups you're cool if you go along using drugs, in others you'll be banned. It's a story of children of said ages that fall in love but don't know how to cope with that feeling. It's a movie about ambitions and parents that don't listen to well to their adolescence. Parents that keep their children on a leach and be suspicious. Not an easy job anyway. You see the normal everyday problems of families these days. Furthermore, good acting, hip-hop music by Brainpower, good camera works and editing. This is a Dutch film and a typical one too: meaning no nonsense, toilet scenes, frustrated mumblings and drugs. Reality detail: when using the internet to chat, you clearly see the popular MSN configurations. Spoken language is Dutch, but on the DVD you can have subtitles in Dutch (for Flamish viewers), English and French. Spoken language to too harsh, no violence, no sex, no death although the players do their best to get there. Great film.
matthias_stroobants It's an excellent movie: the tension is clearly sensible and there is even a moral: don't touch any drugs: it ruins your life. You know, these days many youth can be influenced by their friends to take drugs and sometimes it's hard to say no. That's why this film shows us, it's the best thing to do! It's not a movie like Eragon or something, so it's not a very spectacularly movie, but it certainly is a good movie! The only problem is, it's spoken in dutch. So people who can't understand dutch won't understand it... Even most Belgians will have some problems to understand it at the beginning, but in the middle of the movie they don't have those problems anymore... So just: it's a movie that has to be seen
