My Suicide (Archie's Final Project) (2011), David Lee Miller
3/5
This is a strange film. Most of it feels like a youtube mash up montage and the other part feels like a cheesy teen movie. The subject matter is intense and some of the issues and comments the film explores ring true while at other times it is overwrought, predictable and cliché. This film is as much a film about teen suicide as it is about the portrayal of suicide in media and film. The film covers many issues and mostly deals with them well. The acting especially Gabriel Sunday, the lead is great and really intense. The supporting cast is less effective. Overall a thought provoking yet unfortunately in the end frustrating film.
