Death by Boredom.
9 June 2012
Warning: Spoilers
I had to fight back tears when I watched this movie because I seriously thought I was going to die of boredom, and I was scared because I didn't want to die. In some recess of my numbed brain, I knew boredom wasn't a recognised medical condition so wouldn't be listed as the official cause of death on my certificate. If any member of the Medical Council sat thought this movie, it would be. Or maybe not, cos they'd be dead too.

There was one scene at the end of the film which did spark some interest. When the boy was standing on the cliff and a guy passing sees the camera, he turns and approaches the boy, and I wanted to shout for joy, because for a nanosecond I thought the guy was gonna walk over and push the boy off the cliff. I would have.

I'll finish by saying I have nothing but admiration for those people who - like me - managed to watch this film to the very end. I salute you. And to all those who not only liked it but loved it, you are a complete mystery to me. I can only imagine it was the cuteness factor of the teenage boys. It's the only explanation for it's 6.7 rating and it's the only reason I gave it two stars instead of one. For Lucas Bonnifait.
