3/10
A poor effort

I was really rooting for this film despite it's unoriginal 'accidental killer' plot. Narrative was really weak and I was expecting a new and original take on the 'tortured teens'emotional journey in the aftermath of the event..It did try at times. The scene with his dad could have been so much more touching and effective but it lacked depth & substance. Too many long silences and weak dialogue.I understand what it was TRYING to portray, it just didn't have much of an emotional punch nor did I feel drawn to any characters...Well maybe the dad, a bit. For me, the ending was a complete cop out..Was left wondering what the point was..If the director was trying to convey any kind of moral to the story, I missed it.
