Fits a new genre created called dead end
Its easy to make a good film if you don't have to write an ending for it. It can be a mysterious or as unusual as you like to keep people hooked because you don't have to create a ending.
3 films come to mind cube, the wall and a film where everyone is fighting over a box that you never see what's in it at the end.
It stinks of lazy writing and ruins the whole movie and is a utter waste of time. This is one of those movies. I went into it knowing it wasn't horror but just as the movie gets going it just suddenly ends that's it no explanation no development nothing. Better of buying paint painting something and watching it dry.
It got an extra star because it looked good and the acting was good but without a point there was no point. Don't bother. - btreakle - 25 December 2022
Coming of age
This is a typical coming of age movie in some ways in other ways it's got some more twists and spins because of the author Stephen King short novel. Donald Sutherland delivers a great performance as Mr. Harrigan in this film and And his supporting cast was very good as well. This movie had a little bit of everything a little bullying A little love a little romance and unexpected events. I would not recommend this film for children under the ages of 12 however because of its graphic nature. This is a great movie for children junior high through high school that most could probably relate to and win away or another.
