Oh Lord, the acting...

I literally had to pause the movie to come on here and see if I'm the only one who is confused by how bad the acting is. It's laughable really. Everyone sounds completely wooden and just...off. I can't even describe it. That's how bizarre the acting is. Maybe it's the actual script that's horrendous? I guess I'll try to stomach through the rest of it. Cheers to hoping it improves.

*To anyone who is a fan of the movie, please don't take offense. We're all entitled to our own opinions and this is simply MY opinion.

Lol, I'm with ya on this one.

I can't believe that your description is exactly what happened to me.

I had to come on here to see if I was the only one thinking the acting was just awful.

I think the audio was brutal and there were a ton of scenes that had to be looped afterwards. At the beginning when they were in the science lab, the teacher was telling the kids what to do with the remains and the plastic bags, I was almost certain someone put the words into one of those programs that speak what you type.

The most ironic thing was that the movie's feel reminded me a bit of Napoleon Dynamite and I was going to comment on it. After my gut told me to come and look I see that this movie was also filmed in Idaho.

The only one who was wooden was the English teacher. He was actually very good at emoting through body language, but he often sounded like he was reading a script.
