C'mon, we all have someone in this film we were the most like, or would have been the most like in this situation.
I'd probably be Kwon. Loyal to a fault, happy to follow the orders of others, and even get captured if it helped the team. I'd probably start out thinking that winning and fair play were equally the most important things, but over time start to question the strategy of my leaders.
I think I am most like Joker. Always in conflict, willing to be anyones friend as long as they are willing to do things for me to prove there true loyalty.
shareWell, none of them completely, but if I had to pick one, it would be Caleb. Quiet and independent. Seeing the game as just a game. Unlike him, though, I would have thrown just one grenade at Skinner because I do not tend to get carried away. Though, actually, when I was that age, I might have gotten just like him at that point. Plus, I do tend to defend people who are being attacked by bullies. So, I guess, Caleb it is.
My name is Colin Creevey
and I'm a photoholic.
i would have been the kid, which at a very early point would have told them to seek professional psychological help, head home and cut any previous ties with them. maybe even call the police.

I have to agree with the above post by therefdotcom. Ya, I think by time the torture started, I would have made an excuse to get out of there and get some help for Kwon.
I just don't see how EVERY kid was so effed up. But, at that age it is easy to get caught up into almost anything. The only kid that was likeable at all was Caleb.
Oh, the dog was cool too.
As far as technically, this movie could have been a lot better if they had found kids who could act on a deeper level than what we get here. The girl who played Jess is the best of the bunch... she shows real promise. She was the only one who didn't sound as if she were reading off the page.
And the kid that played Skinner was very good in his last scene with PK, Kwon and Caleb. That was the best scene in the movie as far as acting goes.
Not a bad film, but not a masterpiece by any means.
