**Admit and face the reality than to get the same treatment by avoiding them!** Great cast, even the concept was nice, but a missed opportunity for sure. Bully, LGBT, there were lots of things the film highlighted, but did not choose the right path to ride on with. Everything was overshadowed by the negatives. When I was watching the film, I was very uncomfortable throughout. Because I have kept anticipating the best things to take over at any time, but that never came. Even the sport part was kind of incomplete. The film was a fiction, but even partially that's how things happen in Canada, then Canada is too far behind from all the western world. The film should have been an inspiring tale, or at least an awareness tale. It was a gay theme, though not a romance film. An eleventh grade Tim is avoiding his sexual identity to escape the embarrassment, particularly from the school bullies. But it's too late now, which cost him a big. As a response, he takes a challenge. And now he needs to prove his sexuality, but not everything goes as he had planned. The remaining story takes a crucial twist where everything comes to halt suddenly. Yeah, I think that sudden ending is not convincing. Especially after too many turns in the story development, I actually was expecting the best way to conclude. So not everybody would be happy with that part. Though it was not a bad idea, only they…

Recently, I delved into 1:54, a foreign film that captivated me from start to finish. Despite the language barrier and the constant need to read subtitles, I found myself immersed in the story. The film follows a young boy who faces unimaginable challenges, starting with the loss of his friend to suicide. Witnessing such a tragic event takes a toll on him, and his journey to find solace is both heart-wrenching and poignant. As the boy begins to find happiness with a new acquaintance, his world is shattered by a cruel act of cyberbullying. The intimate moment he shared with his friend is maliciously recorded and spread, leading to a series of traumatic events that culminate in a devastating car crash and a hospital stay. Just when it seems like things might improve, a tragic turn of events leads to an unimaginable loss. The film sheds light on the harsh realities of cyberbullying and its devastating consequences. Watching the young man's struggle and ultimate decision to take his own life is a stark reminder of the cruelty that exists in our world. The fact that such trivial matters can lead to such tragic outcomes is a sobering reality that breaks my heart. 1:54 is a powerful and emotional film that serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of kindness and compassion in a world filled with cruelty.

Another movie that didn't have a happy ending. About two gay guys in school that have to deal with the local bullies. Spoilers: When one kills himself the other sets out for revenge, but when the moment comes he looses his nerve and it just gets worse from there and at the end the bullies win.
