    This story tells the story of a boy who liked football.He was in school and is friend was getting bullied so he stuck up for him but then he got bullied but he taught the bullies at the end.
    He was asked then to go to the dance with his friends he wanted to go but he had to go i...( read more)n a purple top and all the others went in black and he didn't like that so then he wasn't fussed in going but he went in the end.

    I found this movie dead boring it didn't entertain me throughout the time it was on I was expecting for the story to kick in a bit but it just didn't the story was done in such a compicated way I found it difficult to understand what was going on throughout half of the movie I was thinking to myself there must be more in the story than just this but it didn't seem like to me this movie didn't work out well for me.

    The acting in my opinion was pretty bad I like seeing strong acting with lots of emotions and I like to see the actors as if they are enjoying doing the film that fat one just seemed misable and there weren't much going on throughout the film there wasn't much laughing or crying going on.

    The story was slow right at the begining and it was slow throughout the plot didn't have much of a story and I thought it suffered the rediculous story with them going to the dance all these squeeky voices all the immature arguements with the pathetic bullying that was going on didn't entertain me at all I just found it dead boring all this shouting and yelling was just immature and the storyline was told in an adult way the story was not easy to understand and I just couldn't understand what was happening it wasn't rude or anything it was just very hard to understand.

    Basically this film needed more of a twist at the begining and at the end the story could of been much faster and more entertaining the acting could of been stronger aswell.

    These are the targets I will give for this film

    1.Stronger acting
    2.More of a interesting storyline
    3.More of a twist at the begining
    4.More of a twist at the end
    5.Faster storyline
    6.More emotions shown
    7.Easier to understand
    8.Actors didn't seem to be enjoying themselves

    Overall I thought this film was pretty bad so I will not be reccomending for anyone to see this.
