White Rabbit

With the image of a demonic bipedal white rabbit still imprinted on some of our minds, we are now introduced to a quadrupedal white/albino eastern cottontail, with less than angelic influential motivations reaped upon our teenage deviant. Although somewhat darker in nature than the bipedal rabbit, this one gives us homicidal urges rather than precognitive events (one could argue that observation) and pyromaniac tendencies. And if one is familiar with Swedish (and botched Hollywood clones) of a similar genre the: "fight back" scene may also seem familiar to some.

When I was a youngster, my sister was driven by my mom for her weekly ballet lessons, my other sibling was taught signing, my little brother labored under his ventriloquist instructor. Me - I was dropped off at the public library to diligently study books about rabbit hunting, got about 3/4s of the way down the rabbit hole before I found my way out. Most likely the reason for this review.

This film was totally refreshing from all the big studio movies i saw recently.

Never thought that with a small budget so many things can be achieved.

It is filled with amazing cinematography, which captures the atmosphere and sets the mood with every scene, all pleasing to the eyes. Camera work was brilliant from many angles and close ups.

Directing done with a huge precision and professionally made transitions.

Beautiful musical score - visually combined with the film makes it a joy listening to.

Screenplay was also great which is translated into the film with good pacing and performances which all felt natural and were enjoyable to watch.

I was never a big fan of indie films, the reason i saw White Rabbit is mainly because of it's subject, but i got so much more. A big surprise.

I have watched this movie a couple times now and every time I notice something different and have a different theory about the ending. This is going to be the next cult classic, especially since Britt is about to skyrocket to fame and her fans are going to seek this movie out. She is great in this goth role.

The cinematography is so beautiful even though the subject matter is so ugly and the town looks so gritty. The story is so tragic because there are so many things along the way that could have stopped Harlon - his mom could have intervened, he could have joined the church like his dad, his teacher could have tried to help. So many people failed to come through for him. I hope people who see this this movie pay closer attention to those around them who need help.

Growing up can be tough. It is even more tough as men when we are sensitive, and things can just get to us so much. Bullying tactics might be enough to have us cry and just have different meltdowns of sorts. I believe this is the core theme of this movie.

In life we have challenges and we can rise above them and be better then them or we can let them crush our soul.

Watching bullying movies can be hard for me and yet so relatable although the movie is only about bullying in part I believe it to be one of the central themes. It makes me angry inside seeing bullying but for me I just sympathize with it so much due to my own experiences.

In life we have to be tough but kids do not always know how. In small town living there is not much to do but people have fun doing what people have always been known to do.

Very interesting directing, use of filter, acting, writing, the story flows in an interesting way, and the topics throughout the film are extremely relevant.

There are things with the film I will not talk about, as the story changes in interesting ways throughout the film.

I bumped into this on the "trending now" section on Netflix streaming and I was glad I did. It also has Sam from True Blood in it who I always liked. He plays a real masculine no nonsense type dad.

Which passes off like a movie lionising Jeffrey Dahmer, really, and much more so than the recent TV series.

Poor casting of what looks like 30- and 40-something pretending at playing teens does the movie a disservice completely taking the viewer out of the movie. A lot of the scenes are laughable and not in a good way, because of that, some scenes are completely beyond belief, because of the differences of how people think and act in their teen age, here the producers didn't make an effort to actually research the pedestrian subject of life of high school teens and seemingly didn't even want to.

A cringy imitation of the "deep" and "psychological" movies of the 90ies, without substance, with the (still very minimal) gore and stylized violence of the 2010s searching for a meaning, which won't come until the 2020ies , a transitional period, for movies, and for society too. 4/10.
