Re: Elephant
If I wanted to watch people walk around for hours doing FUCKING NOTHING I'd just go to the mall.

Once the shit hit the fan, it was unrealistic and just anticlimatic.....it did make me think AFTER it was over....and I guess it left an impression on me, but FUCK!!!!!!!!! that was some LAME walking scenes and a whole hell of a lot of nothingness going on to call it a great film. Nice try from ol' Gus, but I could NEVER stand to sit through that snorefest again. I know real life isn't exciting and the movie tried to make it seem like a normal day at a normal school and use characters that you never got to "know" so you could get into it all like it was real, but then the ending was like a stupid opera or Greek tragedy. Really took me out of it.

Not my cup of tea, but I can see how people could really dig this. To each his own for sure.
2 and 3/4 stars out of 5.
