I'm not a big Degrassi fan, so maybe that's why I found this to be such an interesting movie.
I watched Degrassi when I was in my early teens, my Father thought it was a good way to teach me some things about life. I thought the show was good, but I was never a big fan. I got to know the characters over the years, I saw them grow, but I didn't really feel for them very much.
The other week I got to see the movie. I wont talk about anything other then the story line, because that's really all I noticed.
It really wasn't anything like the show, but what the show had done for me is build up the characters, give them a lot of depth. In other movies you get to know the characters for a very short time. I knew these characters for all their teenaged years.
The movie totally ruins nearly all their lives. This gave me a very weird, interesting feeling. I never really cared for the characters, so I didn't feel sad. But I didn't expect all this to happen, I really enjoyed it.
Or maybe my mind is just twisted.
