Summary: Awesome Real Life Tale
Review: I only have three things to say, AMAZING, POWERFUL, and REAL. As an eighteen year old, I know what my highs chool life was like. Parties are where teens hook-up no matter what the consequences. Teens showing absolutely no brains or ocnscience is exactly like this movie and real life. I recommend this movie to any high schooler or teacher or even parent.

Summary: Very True
Review: A very depressing film that made me look inside myself to find out what KIDS of taday have done to themselves. This film is somewhat exaggerated do to the fact that a point was trying to be made but 98% of the time this film was extremely accurate. I see bits of these people everywhere I look. I believe the film was letting the viewer know just how misguided and unstructured Teenagers of today are. I also think that the director was pointing out that love has been taken away from our society. Now we turn on the TV and everything is right there for us, people of today are truly lacking love(generalization). Not for the closed of mind but for people who are ready to find out the dangers of our lost youth.

Summary: Review of the disc, not the film
Review: First off, this version is cut. I might be wrong with the numbers, but this DVD is 91 minutes long, while the complete film is 102 minutes long. So, there. Also, it's non-anamorphic, and has no extras. This is the second DVD release of "Kids," but so far the company has failed to release a great film in any kind of a deserving package.Here's hoping for a Special Edition, with a commentary, anamorphic transfer, and everything else. Oh, and also the complete film.

Summary: why this film is true
Review: I think this film is sad but true it reads more like a documentary than a ficticious film.It doesn't really have a plot but tries to take you into the minds of these kids. If anyone who is reading this liked the movie or was interested then you must rent or buy the documentary street wise.And you'll freaking have to believe it because its a documentary.Besides this is New York .

Summary: a reality check!!
Review: This movie hits you right in the face with reality. It opens your eyes as to how life for kids is tough these days. I found it to be one of the best movies i have seen because of the realism.

Summary: Hmm...
Review: This was a very thought provoking movie. I think I'm just attracted to deppressing movies... I really couldn't find anything worng with this movie. I don't think it's a "slap in the face" though. Most people know these kinds of things are going on. It's nothing new, but this film documents this type of life well.

Summary: Rather Worthless
Review: Look, I'm not from any big city. My home town has its share of problems but I'm sure that where I grew up isn't really a glimmer of inner city life. Watching this movie was truly disturbing, but I tried to get passed that to see what the point was because I dont want to be one of those people who judge from the outside of a work to ignore the core. Despite this I found absolutely no use in the making of this movie. I've already seen people living this lifestyle, and I dont think there needed to be a movie about it. There is almost no humanization to the characters except Miss. Sevigny. The film is completely aimless and borderlines on pornography. I dont think that shocking and disturbing us is the way to get us to change things in the lives of youth. Fear is the only thing we create, because most of us are just as ignorant as the youths depicted in this film. I will say that the film hit close to home to my high school days, even if it was a bit more severe. Thats precisely why I gave mercy with two stars. But overall I think the end result in the production of this film is this. We have given something to the parents out there to become even more paranoid and blind, and we've given legal material to all the pedophiles to "entertain" temselves with. If you catch my drift.

Summary: Come on now!
Review: Give me a break people. I'm a 19 year old film student from Boston. I think I know good film when I see one. You people are confusing something great with something controversial. Just because something is in-your-face doesnt automatically make it good. Yes, some teens are violent. Yes, some teens have sex. Yes, some teens do drugs. I have done some of those things myself. But there isn't much realism to this story. I think Clark and Korine just made this as shocking as possible because they wanted to come off as hip, and they wanted attention. The cinematography is bad. The sound is bad. The editing isn't all that great either. The acting is so-so. I don't think parents should see this with their children. Sure, it deals with important issues, especially safe sex. I applaud them for acknowleding important issues with kids. However, I think this movie exploits troubled kids in an effort to seem cutting edge. I noticed many 15 year olds that said "we do this, this is a real movie, man!" No, you probably don't do that. Not the way Clarke is suggesting. You people just got excited to see your age group doing shocking things not usually seen on film, like one reviewer said. This is a poor representation of the "troubled" kids in life. I am a city kid. I've seen many bad things. I've done my share of wild things, so I've also seen people screw up their lives. But this was just ridiculous. I'm sure SOME kids live this way, but this movie expolited the few that do, and made all party kids seem like stupid, callous monsters. Shame on them.
