I see too many beginning diolougue with no caps, characters names need to be in full caps when they are mentioned in the scene direction. Such as "gio goes to the other once empty class,the class is their lights on this time." should be "GIO goes to the other once empty class,the class is their lights on this time." -In addition you summerize some of the scenes, don't summerize! Such as the first scene, how can we see he is late? does he look at his watch? Hear the late bell ring in school?

From Brad Smith Date 2/8/2007 ****
This may be the greatest piece of writing I've ever seen. This is right up there next to Quentin Tarantino's stuff. Get this seen and it WILL become a hit.

From Zach Shevich Date 1/24/2007 0 stars
This must be a joke. There appeared to be no effort at all and it is full of errors. The story makes little sense and the parts that do make sense are uninteresting.

From Zach Aro Date 1/24/2007 *
this movie needs more improment on the spelling and grammer and it needs to make some sence.

From Rob Date 1/23/2007 1/2
Wow and not in a good way. Wheres the grammar or spelling. Come on. ANd to have a live feed? A whole class watching tohats so fake. but it could be pretty goo if you work on it.

From Christopher Date 1/21/2007 1/2
I couldn't follow this script at all, the spelling and grammar is horrendus, the whole thing makes no sense, and you have no clue what's going on half the time....
