A bad approach
An unrealistic approach to the issue of bullying. Too many mistakes here, after the second half the film gets boring with no dialogues and becomes a wanna be forced drama.
Abuse
Clichéd storyline of new girl getting picked on by ss at her new school. No mom, just dad trying to start a new job as a chef. Fairly good acting as father tries to juggle attending to daughter's needs; loss of wife (mom) and job. Fairly good acting on the daughter's part as the abuse at school goes too far. What makes this a little more interesting than other films of this type are the twists and the girl's passiveness which provokes the viewer into asking important questions including the role of the school's administration in monitoring it's ss. A second question was how the father and daughter went about dealing with their own problems. On a critical note I thought the ending could have been stronger/clearer.
Children can be very cruel due to a lack of life experience.
Just like all of us, who are adults, remember some childhood events and understand that these cruel events in childhood were simply because children lack life experience, that they don't really understand empathy because they haven't often been in difficult situations themselves. So, this movie serves as a good reminder of children's cruelty. It also makes one think about the modern permissiveness, where even parents can't intervene in such matters. Harsh.
Speaking about the movie itself, the script is very good. OK-filmed. The actors are good, not much to complain about, everything is understandable. At times, cruelty reaches a high level, but that's probably how life is sometimes. In any case, it makes you think.

As of the day I'm writing this review, these kinds of things are still happening
As a Mexican, one can accept that our cinema is not the best and is very limited, but this film, which explores a very real and sensitive topic, portrays it in a raw and heartbreaking way. It's shocking to see how a single person can ruin your adolescence with just one act or rumor, and how this can escalate to a level that becomes sickening and inhumane. This happens in the daily lives of many young people. I feel this film should be shown in high schools and universities to raise awareness about bullying. This movie not only explores these stages but also shows how, after suffering humiliating experiences, people tend to shut themselves off even more from those close to them. So give this film an opportunity and prepare yourself to see a harsh reality. Seek help-you're not alone.
Strong, terrible film! Moved my heart and soul and made me cry!
Absolutely awful and terrible story!
This film touched and moved me deeply in both heart and soul and I felt very sick both mentally and physically when I watched it!
The happening in this film is totally and terribly wrong and terribly awful!
The worst thing is, that things like this are ongoing daily everywhere out there in our (crazy) world! Humanity is really going in totally wrong direction!
I hope it will wake some people up and also will help to prevent things like this to happen - Let us all work together to fight against all forms of such horrifying things like in this film!
