The Class

I enjoyed the film. The actors were great. It started out slow but soon after quickly picked up the pace. The relationships between the cast members seemed authentic. It's a great movie similar to The Breakfast Club with good a moral compass and has elements of an endearing and heartwarming story. I liked Anthony Michael Hall's performance and thought this was a great throwback to breakfast club days. Some may find this to be a fun Easter egg in the film. I think it'd be a great movie for young adults and for high school teachers to showcase at school. It's definitely worth watching and sharing with family and friends.

Started out boring but as it went on it turned out good. I don't know why bad reviews but I guess you'll have to be in their shoes to understand the movie. I loved through a lot in life and I'm still going through a lot of difficult time's now and I'm not really sure on what to do anymore so I can relate to most of the movie. I never got a gift pregnant or left one but losing loved ones and especially my parents!!! The way they just came out and started talking about the way they feel I don't think that's something I could do though but its something never seen before and I know mental health they have stuff like this.

Connection terminated. I'm sorry to interrupt you Elizabeth, if you still even remember that name, but I'm afraid you've been misinformed. You're not here to receive a gift, nor have you been called here by the individual you assume, although you have indeed been called. You have all been called here, into a labyrinth of sounds and smells, misdirection and misfortune. A labyrinth with no exit, a maze with no prize. You don't even realize that you are trapped. Your lust for blood has driven you in endless circles, chasing the cries of children in some unseen chamber always seeming so near, yet somehow out of reach. But you will never find them, none of you will. This is where your story ends. And to you, my brave volunteer, who somehow found this job listing not intended for you, although there was a way out planned for you, I have a feeling that's not what you want. I have a feeling that you are right where you want to be. I am remaining as well. I am nearby. This place will not be remembered and the memory of everything that started this can finally begin to fade away, as the agony of every tragedy should. And to you monsters trapped in the corridors, be still, and give up your spirits. They don't belong to you. For most of you, I believe there is peace and perhaps more waiting for you after the smoke clears. Although for one of you, the darkest pit of hell has opened to swallow you whole, so don't keep the devil waiting old friend. My daughter, if you can hear me, I knew you would return as well. It's in your nature to protect the innocent. I'm sorry that on that day, the day you were shut out and left to die, no one was there to lift you up into their arms, the way you lifted others into yours. And then, what became of you? I should have known you wouldn't be contempt to just disappear, not my daughter. I couldn't save you then, so let me save you now. It's time to rest. For you, and those you have carried in your arms. This ends, for all of us. End communication.

Whenever I get a package of plain M&Ms, I make it my duty to continue the strength and robustness of the candy as a species. To this end, I hold M&M duels. Taking two candies between my thumb and forefinger, I apply pressure, squeezing them together until one of them cracks and splinters. That is the "loser," and I eat the inferior one immediately. The winner gets to go another round. I have found that, in general, the brown and red M&Ms are tougher, and the newer blue ones are genetically inferior. I have hypothesized that the blue M&Ms as a race cannot survive long in the intense theater of competition that is the modern candy and snack-food world. Occasionally I will get a mutation, a candy that is misshapen, or pointier, or flatter than the rest. Almost invariably this proves to be a weakness, but on very rare occasions it gives the candy extra strength. In this way, the species continues to adapt to its environment. When I reach the end of the pack, I am left with one M&M, the strongest of the herd. Since it would make no sense to eat this one as well, I pack it neatly in an envelope and send it to M&M Mars, A Division of Mars, Inc., Hackettstown, NJ 17840-1503 U. S. A., along with a 3×5 card reading, "Please use this M&M for breeding purposes." This week they wrote back to thank me, and sent me a coupon for a free 1/2 pound bag of plain M&Ms. I consider this "grant money." I have set aside the weekend for a grand tournament. From a field of hundreds, we will discover the True Champion. There can be only one.

The acting in this film from these young actors and actresses in my humble opinion is spectacular! The script was very well written. What stuck out for me is how well this film tackled the current challenges that young students have to face in todays society. I have seen several films that Anthony Michael Hall has worked in so it is no surprise that this actors deep acting chops,was displayed in this film.. Debbie Gibson is definitely an original pioneer in the genre of pop music. She as far as I'm concerned opened the doors for for many female artist from the past and current artist. Her acting chops was definitely a pleasant surprise... For me the Directors vision is cutting edge!

Don't listen to all the old people on here. What The Class and realize how different it is compared to other mainstream movies nowadays. Yeah, action and comedy are great but that's not what we always need. Sometimes you just gotta sit down and unwind with a movie that really makes you think about what everyone around you could be going through. I enjoyed watching the diversity in all the characters. Everyone has a different background and some of their backstories really catch you off guard sometimes. This is what we need in modern-day filmmaking. Not the generic, stereotypical characters you see in movies made by, for example, Netflix. Amazing movie overall. Great job to everyone who worked on this film, especially Nicky Celozzi!

Despite the lame reviews of "me and a nutshell" and "s Russel" who must have alterior motives for posting Those bad reviews!! But I have studied the Film business for over 30 years and I think this movie was "Authentic" and. Very pertinent to today's issues! Teenagers today face so many more serious issues in their lives and this movie really dives into the meat and potatoes of those issues! All the performances by the young actors were great don't think I've seen young actors do a better job than what these great young actors did !! It's not a violent action film so if your looking to be entertained with special effect go see Star Wars! This is a gem of a movie!!

The Class is a modern day Breakfast Club. I say modern day, obviously because it was filmed recently, but also because it discusses controversial topics that people always seem to try to shrug off. Unfortunately these topics have become too prevalent in our society and the only way to heal this it to TALK ABOUT IT. This is exactly what The Class does right. This film brings people from all different backgrounds together to mend each other's lives. The Class has good pacing and slowly delves into each topic yet still manages to keep the audience engaged. This is a 10/10. Bravo to everyone who contributed to this movie.

IN A NUTSHELL: This coming-of-age film is about a group of high school seniors forced to spend a Saturday at school, completing an exam they missed taking or previously failed. By the end of the day, they find their own values, betrayals, and love within themselves and their classmates. The movie was written and directed by Nicholas Celozzi. Based on their last names, it appears that the director's daughter is one of the cast members. The famous teen movie The Breakfast Club in 1985 was clearly the inspiration for this film. Sadly, it doesn't have the magic or charm of John Hughes movies. THINGS I LIKED: Debbie Gibson plays an incredibly patient, compassionate high school teacher. Young moviegoers probably won't know that, in real life, she was a hugely popular singer in the 1980s. She's 52 years old and looks fantastic. Anthony Michael Hall is a fun addition to this teen-angst movie because he was a common face in a bunch of the successful John Hughes movies of the 1980s. Hannah Kepple is beautiful and has a beautiful singing voice. What a pleasant surprise! Teenagers nowadays face increasingly difficult issues in a very complicated world. The film addresses today's issues for teens like coming out, abortion, family drama, friendship, preparing for college, popularity, health, drugs, and more. Most teens just want to be seen and understood while they're trying to figure out who they are. THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE: Such annoying teenagers. So much hair tossing. I thought it was hilarious when one of the characters pulled a gigantic pill bottle out of her jacket, as if anyone would want to carry that around. Surely, she could have slipped a few in a baggie. There's a lot more drama than comedy. Not all of the comedy lands. All of the characters cry and spill their beans quite easily. Teen drama. Some bad editing. It's weird how the teacher kept leaving her class, abandoning her students. Maybe she wanted to give them privacy to work on their assignments; however, it was established in the beginning of the movie that these were flunking students who needed extra guidance and support. TIPS FOR PARENTS: Profanity, including F-bombs A guy brings a bong to class A guy drinks alcohol at school Teens flip the bird Violence Talk of death and suicide A teenage girl wears a bustier and super short-shorts to school THEMES: High school Lack of motivation Drama class Abortion Alcoholism Rejection Abandonment Judging others Racism Creating safe spaces How we affect each other Be yourself Supporting one another.

Great programming for a young audience. It is clearly an homage to John Hughes... but it is made modern in its concerns, accounting for school shootings and the general anxiety and fear felt by kids in school today. A group of misfits are tasked with a detention theater class that requires them to bring their own experiences to the work of acting a character. The class allows each to confront the weighty issues keeping them from living their authentic lives. In a clever self-reflection, each actor in this movie is tasked with doing the exact same thing, and some honest acting is accomplished here. Nice chemistry among the cast. Really well done!
