This movie is an interesting portrait of a family with a dysfunctional relationship between mother and son, mostly due to a dysfunctional son, in my opinion. The son ends up committing a mass murder and the mother is blamed for it by others in the community. It also shows how victims families and friends treat the family of the culprit. I believe this is often true.

People interested in exploring a lessor viewed part of mass murders--the side of the culprit's family. It's also good for those who like a lot of imagery in their movies. This one is LOADED with it.

Watching how the mother dealt with things after her son attacked and killed (with a bow and arrows) students in his school.

It was heavier on imagery than I prefer in my movies. But that's just personal preference.

Think more about what the families go through when their loved one is the one responsible for the death and suffering of others.

This movie had some really great acting. I thoroughly enjoyed all the kids who played Kevin, the murderer.

It's interesting and portrays a part of society we don't normally think about.
