Broken Youth (2019)

wow this was sad - and not as this had a bad ending, but watching the bullying and "getting" that this is reality for a lot of students (no matter where they live) is just sad! also watching "u" feel like the "actor's" r newbies (as the acting felt a bit robotic) and while the after credits run, the testimonies given by some of the victim's (that were acting) to their own bullying experience's - confirms my initial though that they new to acting. so depressing is the right feeling left after watching this - cause as much as the main being gay is supposedly the main plot-point - that really aint the main point. its the ostracizing and almost witch-hunt perpetrated by a group - against one weak individual, just cause they can.

first off this not perfect - but as the main point was vividly conveyed - it doesn't matter. cause when Li Yang was just standing there and everyone else was encouraging him to jump - i suddenly got all those mass shootings done in the US but outcasts, and all those happily encouraging some one they tormented on the daily, to "jump" as if his life mean nothing, but added enjoyment to theirs - i kinda got what those other outcasts did, why they did. cause Li Yang or anyone giving their lives up to appease that bunch of human trash - wasn't justified (and sorry if i'm being mean, but that got under my skin like i donno what). as is those two girls at the start, making up sh*t about Li Yang's poor hard working mother, made me see red - so the more his bullying escalated, the more my wrath grew - hard to stay clam and collected watching this.

it was interesting and it feels more like an educational film for students, to get how much damage they r doing by their thoughtless words / actions - donno if this will stop bullying or help anyone in this situation. but the thought behind it is good...

brought light to a serious matter

although the acting was amateur, the story is good. it’s got a deeper meaning that’s surface level.

the girls in this minus the mother were the worst. and I hated that nothing actually happened to the bullies… any of them in the end.

but surprisingly we did get an hea, and you can tell it wasn’t a bromance hea.

I think it’s worth a shot to watch it.

the mom was best in all of this in the end and I’m glad he had someone on his side. well two people.

it really did bother me not one person that bullied him got anything. it was all just forgotten. and I do wish we got to see how he handled everything later on especially at school. did he stay in same school?
