Summary: Excellent, all the way
Review: This movie was so incredible. Instead of being all about a violent shooting, it was about the people it affected, and how they strived to get past it. The acting was phenomenol. Busey Philips character literally brought me to tears in the end. She made me feel like I was going through what she had gone through. And Erika Christensen was also excellent. She played a perfect happy teen torn apart by horrible events, and she played it to the "T". Excellent directing, excellent cast, excellent movie!

Summary: No Doubt about it, Nice Film that got overlooked by Oscars
Review: This Movie will make you think that there is a madness out there that needs to be understood. This motion picture is really sad, but it has a good message. There is a world that is going on in the nations schools that really needs to be explained and home room provides several answers to the areas that parents, teens and faculty need to know. I thought about this movie for 3 days, thinking about the ending which to me personally was so touching. One actually cares for the characters to have a happy ending. In my Vision, this is a Quality film that got overlooked by the Oscars. homeroom is just right up there with traffic-meaning in where these are emotional films that will make you believe, think and wonder about the issues that people are facing today. homeroom is recommended, and it is pretty good that this film has reached 10,000 units. great accomplishment.
home room has actress e. christensen, busy phillips and viktor garber-who plays officer van zandt.I also recommend "Blue Car" and Agnes Bruckner is in it. Agnes Bruckner is also in Home Room with E.Christensen.

Summary: For the ones who are wondering...
Review: This review is for the ones like me who were concerned about scary images. Not too many worries here, there's no gruesome cadavers or blood spurts, they only show a close-up of a teen who had gotten shot, but all you see is some blood on one girl's head. There is a scene with a dead body, but it's not presented in a scary "Hollywood" type of way, it's very peaceful, and the dialogue between the two main characters is beautiful here. FYI: the body is not a shooting victim. I actually found that some of the dialogue was more disturbing than the film itself. For example, near the beginning when Busy Philipps asks Erika Christensen if she knows why carnations have become the "funeral flower" and she tells her because back in the old days before they could embalm the body, they would use the flowers to try and "cover up the smell of the rotting flesh," that kinda creeped me out. So yeah, there's just a few little things like that. Overall the movie is fairly intense, if you're super sensitive to movies and such you'll probably need to watch something light afterwards. But please check this out, it's not too scary, it's amazing, and the acting and writing are terrific.
If you liked "Thirteen," "Swimfan," "Gossip," or even "My First Mister" then get this.

Summary: Movie that has all the emotions, including pain.
Review: This was a very good movie, even though it didn't have that much publicity, which usually are the best movies. When I go to the movie rental place I usually go straight to the new releases but I was browsing around when this movie caught my eye. I read the back of it and decided to rent it. I'd have to say that it has become one of my many favorite movies. So buy it now!!

Review: This was one of the worst movies I've seen in a long time. I rented it, having heard great things about it, but it was terrible.

Summary: Home Room
Review: Wow - what a touching movie! The two main female charecters are so much alike even though at first they don't take the time to get to know one another. II think this movie will help start conversations about why there is school violence and how it affects people in the aftermath.
