Busy Philipps at her finest...outstanding movie..too bad not many people watched this movie because of the killings in high schools throughout the United States. Keeps you captivated because you feel the actress' pain and at the end truly a tear jerker!
I highly recommend this movie!
I give Busy Philipps 5 stars too!
it will move you August 4, 2009

What made Home Room such a memorable movie? Well, a bunch of things. This movie was released during a time when school shootings started becoming a constant problem all over the country. This prompted many films to be developed dealing with the subject. Many of the films focused on the shooters themselves, and the quiet, eerie and unpleasant build up that would lead to a sad and tragic conclusion.
Home Room however, focuses on two of the students who were right in the middle of the shooting incident inside the classroom, and the two female students end up becoming... not really friends, but two people who can talk to each other about their problems and get to know each other a little better as a result. So Home Room is actually a movie that deals with the after effects of a sad situation.
This is NOT an ordinary storyline though. For one thing, the two students the storyline focuses on are NOTHING alike- two completely different girls with nothing in common. When you take two high school girls with nothing in common and try getting them to be best friends, well, most of the time it ain't gonna happen, but when a major tragedy such as a school shooting enters the picture, things change then and kids tend to put aside their differences and just talk to each other.
When the one girl with the goth appearance keeps visiting the other student in the hospital, the relationship slowly starts to develop. The movie only gets better and better as the story gets more personal, and you will see (and probably feel) a TON of emotions that both girls experience as they get to know each other better each day the goth girl visits the other one.
The grand finale is the ending of the movie, which reveals at LEAST three different things. It's probably one of the best endings to a film ever, or at least, in the top 10 that I've ever seen because it's shocking, emotional, and moving. It's *incredibly* memorable. The whole film is fantastic though. A MUST see.
amazing. July 12, 2009

This is a great movie. Everything about it I love. The entire story line is very good. There are a couple twist in this movie. My girlfriend always crys at the end but i didnt haha
I got this movie for $5 dollors but would pay alot more for it!
 good movie, but I'm tired of the "goth" cliche October 27, 2008
EvilolivE (Earth)
This was a wonderfully acted and very moving movie. However, I'm really tired of the "damaged, attitudy, suicidal goth chick" cliche in movies. Sorry, but people don't "turn goth" because they lose a child. I was halfway waiting for the "happy ending" where Alisha shows up all nice and preppy looking again and ditching her goth look - thereby implying that she was doing better emotionally. *sigh*
Other than that though, it was a great movie.
