Watched it for the first time in 8 years


I was 16 when I watched this back in '06. I downloaded it recently because I was bored and haven't seen it since then. What a dumb movie. Thought it was cool back then but it's just lame. Now that I'm older I just can't help but think that's all this movie was made for, little high school kids who think this kind of stuff is cool.

That first scene at the party really pisses me off. Yeah, it's a movie but he makes it clear he doesn't want to fight, and when he tries to leave, that other kid is like, "where do you think you're going" I'd have knocked him out and gone home. I would like to rant some more about this movie but I'm tired and I'm going to go bed. I just hate this movie and how it promotes this whole, "fighting is cool and gets you chicks" mentality when it's the complete opposite in the real world.
