I found this movie incredibly depressing, and realistic. It is about the awful world of young men now, especially young men from immigrant families who never feel like they are a real part of America, a part of its sexual mores (there is a revolting level of homophobia and sexism), its constant dead-end consumerism and careerism, and its culture of endless competition and cruelty. Turner Risk is a loser in that culture, and the victim of a lifetime of bullying; anyone who has been really bullied understands how he feels, although not how far Turner goes with his feelings. I really wanted him to nail his enemy Connor, who is the one character who gets away, but not unscathed. I think this is a shocking, and very gripping piece of indie cinema; that so much could be done so economically really impressed me.
