I noticed it On Demand and I didn't trust what people said on IMDB.

Opinions?

Hopefully someone has seen this flick.

Nope but it looked pretty boring from the trailer. Oh noes kid who got teased shoots up everyone while innocent hot guy gets killed too. Or at least that's what it looks like.

I thought it was incredibly boring.

I know it was critically acclaimed, but I just didn't like it. It has some shots that just follow people around while they walk around hallways and other boring stuff. It's like the equivalent of watching a 5-minute scene of someone just staring into the camera while eating cereal... very boring.

i remember the tagline to be something dumb like "an ordinary highschool day, except it's not." Oh yeah, I heard it's suppose to be really bad.

It gets very boring... The film takes a five minute scene and stretches it over an hour by showing you all the different perspectives of each character. It's one of those 'artsy' movies that makes you think and leaves you hanging at the end. My sister absolutely hated this movie. I thought it was somewhat interesting, but then the originality of it began to wear out during the movie and it got REAL slow.
