So first and most importantly if you can't handle real life scenario bullying TURN BACK!! In all honesty, I was worried to watch this strictly because there's a tag that says 'tearjerker'. I'm not built for crying and the fact the main plot of this movie is bullying, hits me hard as a mother. I held strong...til the end. lol The acting was amazing! I felt all the emotions from the main characters and the music was touching as well. I was bullied briefly a few miscellaneous years of school but fortunately for me, I never felt anything close to the impact many others do. Even as an American, this movie definitely portrays the same issue...getting the police and school system to take you seriously and actually help you. The romance was so perfect in everyway that I can honestly say I don't want anything added or taken away. Worth the watch but can be emotionally draining.
