I've never been so riled by a movie as this one- probably mainly because I've heard all Thalluri's pretentious comments that have gone with it in regard to its potential to save lives. In regard to the actual movie itself, I found the characters so 2 dimensional and chichedie, the 'cheerleader' was bulimic, the 'jock' was gay, the 'nerd' wet his pants (there is no talent in 'creating' such stereotypes)- and the movie didn't even begin to actually explore any depth to any of them, just simply presented the problems and 'suprised' us all by hysterically suiciding the one with the least screen time. I was personally annoyed by the gay themes- it was exactly as I imagine someone with no idea would think the struggle with coming to terms wit!h one's homosexuality would be like- the character locking himself in the closet with furious self-loathing was just hilarious! Overall, I think the entire movie was a beautifully packaged presentation of a rubbish script from someone without a scrap of insight to the very serious issues it attempted to tackle. (-And I agree with 'Boonda's comments on the 'lucky' statement at the end)
