I found this movie really hard to get a grasp on.
It was just so scattered and patchy. I don't know if it was the edition for the screenplay but at time it genuinely felt like I had black-out and missed chunks of the film. Things seem to happen for no apparent reason and friendships spring up from one scene to the other. It was really confusing. At some points in the movie I was genuinely like "what is happening". It was so frenetic.
That doesn't mean it was all bad. Edward Chen Was really great in his role. I thought you could really feel what he was feeling and he really took you with this character.
The script is really up and down. There is a good story here somewhere but it was just so tangled up in its self and nothing was fleshed out. I am also over the boarding school setting for films like this. I think we should let that one lay for a while.
I was hoping it would be really fantastic and it wasn't. The cinematography is pretty good and there are some harrowing scenes that really can get you emotional but I think it missed the mark.
