A Disappointing Continuation

I watched the beginning of this movie this morning on LMN and read where it was about bullying. Then I saw the girl take a selfie of herself to send to her boyfriend. Not sure but why do I think that any girl who does this deserves whatever happens. I am so glad and grateful that cell phones weren't around when my two children were in high school, but I'm also convinced that neither of my children would send incriminating selfies over the internet. I like "instant" digital cameras. I remember the Samsung I bought several years ago that I bought to take pictures during my annual fishing trip to the Adirondacks. I remember reading a review that said you could take pictures of yourself and the reviewer said that might be useful at times. I thought why in the world would that be useful. I guess he was more aware than me of how the current youth in the U.S. are totally spoiled and into themselves.

Where do I begin with how bad this movie is. The writing is sophomoric, the acting wooden and the plot, while plausible, is badly developed.Why do they insist on hiring 25 year old actors to play high school kids. If they are going to hire 25 year old actors to play high school kids can't they at least find ones who can act? As to the writing.... they say write what you know. While the writer may know that high school kids can be mean, he has no idea how they act, what they do and no idea about sports, prosecutors, police and the issues around sexting.Just a bad movie... take the two hours and do something else in life.

Don't read this review if you don't want to know the ending of this film.The pressure to want their kids to succeed among the USA's middle class parents has to be of primary importance in the competitive world of the free market.This film fires this home on both barrels. I felt like punching my TV screen from beginning to end when watching this film.The mother responsible for this girls suicide did not see anything wrong with what she did, "I did it for you", she tells her daughter.I ask, just how many middle class American parents would be prepared to go to these lengths to help their son and/or daughter to succeed ?This mother made me angry, her daughter and her daughters friends made me angry.But the mum comes out on top because she did not seem to care what she had done, until she was found out.Oh, if only we could see the consequences of our actions 24/7. ?????

Outstanding film dealing with bullying in our schools. In this one, a mother of a daughter who committed suicide wants answers to what drove her daughter to do this. The girl had everything.It is during the investigation that the mother encounters a hostile environment. None of the students would speak to her and she gets resistance along the way from the principal of the school. After going into the girls' bathroom, the mother had every right to accuse the principal of being incompetent.What makes this movie so good is the ending.One will be absolutely shocked to see who the culprit was. A picture of the girl in the raw was sent all over. This picture ruined her life.This is an engrossing, timely movie. There is tragedy throughout the film.
