Response to Briony's BBB 'kids'

Kids


The most disturbing thing about kids for me was the total nihilism of the final scene. The only male character with any redeemable features turns out to be a rapist. That's dark. The film did, however, remind me a lot of the group i used to knock around with when i was 16, obviously my group wasn't as extreme but it certainly displayed similar 'pack' behaviour. Whether Kids is a useful educational tool for parents i'm not so sure. I think the switched on ones know that this stuff exists already and the ones who have lived more sheltered lives probably wouldn't believe it.
