StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

meetallica When the movie started i felt the perfection.For teenager education parents should watch this movie.The movie shows the reality of life and gives examples what students face each day in the school.Really touchy movie and and catchy story that i never forget in my life.To be honest mostly people think life is colorful and worths to live after the movie there is obvious message that life is not that such colorful.The love, tears, laughter and many feelings i had when i was watching this movie.It shows somehow the pointless ways of life and the tragic coincidences of life.

By_Burak54 This would be one of the best film of 2006. Very moving and very powerful. From the first few minutes, i was astonished, then at the end of the film, it felt like i was kicked in the stomach, i was so blown away. I think 2:37 is such a good film. It gives an even amount of character development in this. I really think it would be a great idea if they showed this film at high schools. And this film shows that you never know what's going on in someone's private life - which is an important issue to realize in a school setting. I don't think this film is trying to say "these are what your typical students are like" - rather, it's just an example. Everyone's different obviously, which is why some people hate this film and others love it. About soundtrack, it was both haunting and terrifying when the chatter of the school ground rang out over the music. Throughout the movie, I was a bit bored through most of it because the performances are mostly too melodramatic and solemn and the dialogue is mostly swearing. In spite of everything, this is one of the film before you die you should watch.

bsr-gl93 Sometimes all of us may think that we have many problems in our life and we may think we are the most unlucky human in the world. After i watched this film my opinion has changed. At the end of the film, indicating the reality of the film is really impressed me. That is why my opinion has changed.At the beginning of the film, they let you know there is a suicide and then the film tells you about the six teenagers and their psychological problems and you want to learn who is the suicided. It makes this film more enjoyable and it makes sensation.There is a girl who helps everyone. She is the most lively person. You may think she is the person who has the least psychological problems but unexpectedly she commit suicide. I think she commit suicide because of being ignored and unnoticed. That is really unguessable ending.

charlytully In the late 1930s and early 1940s, Mickey Rooney, Judy Garland, et al., tried to present American high school as a la-de-da-da musical experience in the ANDY HARDY bushel of movies. Though life did not turn out to be a bowl of cherries for either of these stars, that did not prevent tons of subsequent high-school-is-such-a-happy-place, we-all-have-to-sing fairy tales including GREASE, FOOTLOOSE, HAIRSPRAY, the HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL trilogy, the current GLEE television series, ad infinitum from being foisted upon the public. Just as millions of high school football concussions go a long way toward producing an all-volunteer military, thousands of singing 20-somethings posing as teenagers lull parents who have repressed their own prep memories into thinking maybe school ain't so bad nowadays. Conversely, high school as one big party was epitomized with FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF in 1986 (perhaps to ease the minds of parents realistic enough to admit their kids can't carry a tune). However, many kids would rather "play" in Jigsaw's torture warehouse than attend their assigned high school. From the twisted societal pigeon-holing that messed up Natalie Wood and Warren Beatty's characters in SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS (1961), to the horror show director Richard Kelly placed DONNIE DARKO in (2001), or the Columbine re-imagining Gus Van Zant accomplished with ELEPHANT (2003) and subsequent effort by Vadim Perelman to layer in the futility of youthful religious zealotry with his THE LIFE BEFORE HER EYES (2007), it is clear that high school is more something that happens to you, as opposed to something you can control (as in Andy Hardy's unrealistic refrain "let's put on a show" to solve every problem, or the implausibly unpunished charmed lives led by Ferris Bueller's ilk).In the masterful 2:37, director Murali K. Thalluri consciously adopts Van Zant's story-telling style to show the underside of high school life "Down Under." Accurately portraying high school as a cesspool of hypocrisy and callousness where children are finishing the job of transforming themselves from comparatively innocent short people who tell it like it is into the self-centered liars society expects them to become by graduation day, 2:37 deftly reinforces the notion that it's the quiet ones you have to look out for.
