Spoiler, venom.

Rating: 2/10 (30 May 2000)

Warning, spoiler...
If ever o ever a strawman there was the Dead Poets Society is one because because because of the never ending cavalcade of unblinking cliches that constitutes it's "plot". Raised only by the ultimate expression of entitled teen angst, the ineptly over played suicide of "the sensitive boy", this movie comes across like a verbose sixth graders attempt at drama. One dimensional characters bounce around the screen, avoiding any semblance of complexity or depth. Highly overrated, obvious and insipid.
