| Best. Movie. Ever.

This is possibly the greatest movie that has been created. The best cinematography I have ever seen, real acting that caught me completely off guard, and a story that I think brought tears to all that watched. I cannot believe that such a masterpiece has not become more popular and widespread in this world.

The director is, I must admit, brilliant. Jaren Garff has delivered a classic that blindsided all critics. Dallin Earl, also, acted phenomenally. Ballal is a bully that I think we all have had in our lives. I related to this story extremely well, as many of the scenes happened in my childhood. The disability acted by Mr. Earl felt real and heartfelt. I actually found myself pulled into the story like I never had with any other movie. I highly recommend this movie to anyone of any age.

Trivia

The psychiatrist scenes were completely improv. Travis Neal (Dr. Phil) first found things around the room (a pencil, sunglasses, and a TV remote) to use as "analysis" tests.

Goofs

In the flashback, Jimmy throws the Pokeball towards the camera, but when the shot goes to Ballal and his friend, the Pokeball comes and hits Ballal in the head from the opposite direction. When Ballal and his friend go to beat up Jimmy, they run off in the completely different direction of where Jimmy originally was, and yet Jimmy is then seen pinned to a tree, in a completely different place than where he originally was.
