    This is definitely sending the wrong message to teenagers yes I understand it's a fictional story. It's not ok to commit a crime and then frame the person you just murdered . It should have given the ending of what happens when you obsess about things beyond your control and what the consequences are of trying to please everyone around you. Olivia was obsessed about going to Stanford and she was willing to what it took to achieve that. Olivia was willing to plot, scheme, cyber bully, lie and murder others in the process to achieve the objective. I hope this movie leads to a sequel because Olivia is a sociopath and she decides to take up psychology and use her friend murder that she created as a college introduction letter for acceptance . Watchers needs to know the consequences of obsession and compulsion disorder if you don't seek help or treatment and if you know anyone with this behavior here is a number to get help as follows !

JANE is a film that will make you think, feel, and question our actions' impact, the consequences of crossing ethical boundaries, and the toll that grief can take on the human psyche.

I was impressed at how each character added the perfect mix of importance to the story/ JANE is a film that deserves your attention, even if it has flaws in pacing. The film's stunning cinematography and captivating performances only add to its impact.

    Given that this film is from a first time director, an impressive display of film making. Great character development as well as first rate production values. The movie was a bit darker than I expected but throughly entertaining. I'm just glad I wasn't born in the generation of social media savants. The film captures high school as the real world soap opera it has always been,but, with a very modern style. Well done Ms Jaglom
