Finally a more realistic teen movie. I love the genre, but in this film the themes of suicide, obesity, internal conflicts, lies on the internet are addressed in a way that is closer to reality. I really appreciated that at the end of the film the typical "cute girl" from a teen movie doesn't fall in love with the protagonist. Normally these films would end with her ultimately stopping him from attempting suicide and finding herself in love. Unfortunately, reality is almost never like this and even though he almost died, she still doesn't reciprocate his feelings. Unfortunately, many young people experience internal conflicts and have suicidal thoughts. Films like this can help in some way. Or at least, I'd like it to be that way.
