An amazing story
A fantastic exploration into bullying, forgiveness, and pretending redemtion
A much more impressive exploration of bullying and how both the victims and the bullies behave. Shows the difference between pretending to seek forgiveness for personal gain vs the motions that would garner real forgiveness, as well as growth of the victims emotionally in the process. I'm not explaining this well. It's really good. I've seen so many other movies about bullied kids. Compared to Hail to Hell, they all seem simplistic in their analysis of the topic.
Acting is fantastic. Funny moments are funny, and not contrived at all. Dark humor is dark. Drama is dramatic. I saw this without any expectations (positive or negative), and knowing little of what I'd see, and I will recommend this to everyone. Except young children.
