IMHO REVIEW :
Watched this movie last week, it’s an interesting concept with a great story. The movies a cross from film-noir and high school. It’s gritty but everything is placed in a high school setting which throws you off.

The language that is used seems very gritty - but they play it off as if it’s just the lingo that these high school kids use, plus it’s interesting how all the various characters and places are matched with things that a high school student would associate with. For example - a kid’s parents kitchen is like a bar, except his mom serves up milk and juice instead of gin and juice. The Vice Principle or ‘VP’ is like the police chief of a gritty town.

It’s interesting - it throws you off a bit, but the overall story is a good one. If you like mystery, if you like indie then this would be a great movie for you.
