--Very boring--

Rating: 3/10 (2 November 2007)

We watched this movie for the last period of our career choice class. We were a class of 14 to 16 year old watching a movie about poetry. Teenagers today aren't really fond of poetry. If you get were I'm coming from..when there was a fight, i think the whole class wanted it to end up like one has a black eye and bleeding nose and other stuff than just a simple punch and there it was over. The movie was so long it never ended. Even when the Neil guy died..we kinda wanted to see him shoot himself and see a lot of blood and not just parents running everywhere and finding a gun on the perfectly clean floor. By the end, since like 3/4 of the class was gone on a field trip, we were about 10 in the class, nobody was watching it..i was just walking everywhere talking to people, some people were shooting paper balls into the recycle bin from the other end of the class. We were so glad when the movie ended. It was especially weird when Robin Williams wanted his class to call him Ô Captain..strange.
Don't take it to personally, but i think it's more of a parent movie to watch together and not a movie that you would see with you're whole family. If you liked the movie, then thats great, i din't. Yea, i think it was one of our teacher (who is like a 49 year old single dude) favorite movie. So please you middle-aged people, don't torture you're kids with this.
