I'm not one too catch a lot of inconsistencies, but I just couldn't keep from seeing them here. From like the first 10 minutes on.
A kid throws a beer bottle that busts on the back of the family car window as they drive off, and the wide shot showing them drive off the window is clean. The girl throwing rocks at his window at the treatment center to get his attention, pebbles by the sound of it, but each one puts a small crack in the window.
The boy gets drilled into the bone of his leg, while he is still conscious- then he is walking and even nearly running afterward. He gets the back of his head shaved and gets drilled into it, but a few scenes later and there's no shave spot in the back of his head.
When he talks to the girl through the heavy glass room, somehow they hear each other pretty loud and clear where it would really be muffled. And there were more and more problems.
The whole thing to me just felt thrown together and not well thought out. Like they carelessly ran through the first two acts to get to the final act, which was a crazy twist. Maybe the end gives a pass to most of the issues I just listed, but it feels more like sloppy and rushed film-making.
Not a great movie by any of the stretch. Maybe it isn't even trying to be. Is it worth watching? After what I saw, I don't think so. My vote would be to find a better one.
