    Strange but Excellent

    by ElphabaWeasley

    I really liked this film! Not gonna lie, it is VERY weird, but it's also really good! It's comedy, slasher, teen culture throughout like the last 20 -30 years, with some sci-fi and supernatural. R is for language, blood, and some random nudity; boobs.

    The acting was good, cinematography, the way it was shot. I'm always happy when films don't use the shaky camera (handheld?) because then my eyes can focus better. The writing was clever. Very hip and modern. And this film was funny I was laughing a LOT and so were people around me :)

    I highly recommend this, I'm so glad I saw it, and so lucky they had it in my city. I hope it gets a wide release. I will definitely see it again, and also buy the DVD :)

    A film for this generation!

    by ValShizzle

    This is a must go film! It's non-stop hilarious, you can't look away for a second without missing something. You will never be bored while watching this film. The reason the critics don't like this movie is because they are old men and don't get the way our generation thinks. In our instant gratification seeking age this film challenges the audience to keep up but never loses you if you pay attention, which you will definitely want to! Help show Hollywood we're sick of remakes and sequels and go see Detention!

    I'm In!

    by JustWatchTheMovie

    Maybe..... it got a lot of crappy reviews so I'm a little scared now. And it's rated R for more than just language and violence. I'll admit..... I would only see this for Josh Hutcherson *blush* it's the truth!

    I adore this film

    by leahrandall

    It's so weird, in the best way. It's also impossible to explain or describe - you have to see it for yourself. But you'll have tons of fun, I promise.

    Run Away!!

    by

    Oh so bad. Right from the first scene I knew we were in trouble but I hoped it would get better...it didn't. Not so bad to walk out but at least 4 others did. I see what the makers were going for and it could have been great but in my opinion, they just failed on every level.

    Unique, thrilling, and amazing!

    by Alanjo

    This movie is so cinegraphically unique and awesome. It will keep you on the edge of your seat the whole movie between the action, mistery, comedy, and horror. It's only rated R because of foul language and one short scene of nudity. Overall it's a must see and it's a one-of-a-kind masterpiece!

    Oy but you'll get into it

    by wisewords

    I guess this film all depends on what kind of movie style you enjoy. It's a bit of a mess if you don't keep up from the start but once you get into it I think you'll enjoy the crazy ride!
