BAD DVD ENDING!

Rating: Null/10 (16 October 2004)

All the 'themes'(shock value!), and 'talent'! (ahhh...Kutcher!)...yeh right!...Go Demi!... to keep, especially, the teens, interested! Then, characters portraying 'issues' we hear and read about, daily, in the media, that 'unfortunately, and sadly', many people experience as an on going, every day problem, eg...abuse,child molesters,animal cruelty,bullying,bashings...and all the other 'repulsive sides of human nature' that this movie presents within its 'plot'! Hey I know this film isn't a documentary, but, it frustrated me that the confused, ditzy 'story line' didn't offer any 'REAL' solutions to 'change events'...it always felt 'hopeless', and, the DVD ending, done my head in! What a miserable, sad, hopeless, negative ending... but maybe, even especially, for someone, suffering severe depression!
I'm not.
But anyone who knows 'even just a little bit about mental illness', should realize what this last idea implies...it suggests that, 'had he', (Kutchers character), not 'existed',(as the movie portrays in the, death of 'him', the baby), that everyone else's live's would have been... 'much nicer and all rosy without him'! What utter crap...eg, 'the child molester' would still have been living there, mum would still have smoked and 'all the problems' that exist in everyday life would still occur etc! Film Makers... Get responsible!
