De title may b intense & de starting is intriguing but de story lacks a punch -

12 Suicidal Teens gave equal attention 2 telling all of deir stories & provided audiences wid an avenue 2 hear de problems dat compelled these teens 2 end their life. A lot of these problems are relatable & realistic & could serve as a wake up call 4 audiences 2 listen 2 wat is not being said by their own loved ones, friends or acquaintances.

SYNOPSIS ~12 teenagers sign up 4 an assembly 2 commit suicide @ de basement of an abandoned hospital. Unlike any suicide attempt though, de assembly needs de consent of de entire body b4 dey can proceed wid de plan. B4 dey can even begin however, dey find dat another person has beaten them 2 de punch. Dey begin 2 suspect dat a murderer is among them & dey team up 2 unravel de mystery behind their uninvited guest.

All in all, 12 Suicidal Teens could be described as a boring film for some because of the lengthy dialogue and the general quiet atmosphere, but for me, it was ok. The twists weren’t very surprising neither it felt exceptionally mysterious but they were just enough to keep me on my sit untl the end. PREDICTABLE !! UT WORTH A WATCHH

12 individuals trying their best to "just end it" (For different reasons)

The plot is simple. 1 guy plans an assembly looking for 11 other participants to go to "eternal sleep" together.
The rules:
1. They need to vote unanimously to "pull the plug".
2. If even one person is against it then they talk about it until it's unanimous.
3. Anyone can leave anytime if they don't wish to participate in the assembly anymore.
The movie is not about the mystery or the suspense. They are a big part of the movie but they're definitely not the main focus. The main focus are the each of the 12 individuals and why they are choosing to "leave the mortal realm". As the movie progresses, the stories of each individuals starts to unravel while they try to solve the mystery of the 13th individual and each story makes it even harder for the 12 to come to a unanimous decision. Some stories are deeper than the other of course but it also what makes each of the characters unique in their own way.
It's not a horror, suspense or mystery movie. It's a story about 12 people trying their best.

Great movie. Watched it a few years back and re-watched it recently. I was shocked to see a low rating on such a gem.
Good cinematography, good cast/acting, good ost. Solid watch.

It’s not what you think it is

If you’re looking for a thrill-filled and suspenseful movie, then you’re in the wrong place. The movie focuses more on the psychological reflection and aspects of life. Simultaneously discussing diverse human situations with regards to the choice of life or death, while navigating through the characters’ interactions with each other and how they collectively decide their choices.
