Review of Class Enemy

Class Enemy (2013)
1/10
One of the worst films I've ever seen (I'm Slovenian, btw)
13 April 2016
It's story about class mates' revenge against a teacher who supposedly bullies one of the students to the point of suicide. The film is poorly written and badly directed. It starts with a rather long shot of a student who is irrelevant in the film. OTS shots in dialogue have no matching counter shots even if the other character is talking! Teacher is always shot from the same position, and he never actually does anything but recite the same German author over and over again - a very poorly constructed villain. The actor who plays him has no charisma, he's boring and not convincing at all. There is no main character or protagonist. Even though we see the bullying we never actually get lead into the possibility of suicide. The student never shows any sign of mental instability that could make her do that. Crying, which is the only thing she does, is not enough reason to commit suicide. Also, we never actually see the suicide, we just learn about it. The writer obviously had not done his research nor had he studied basic rules of screen writing. Don't watch it, you will never get those 1.5 hours back.
