Kids

what a horrible horrible movie, the only thing worse than the script was the acting, oh god i wanted to shoot myself

Outstanding movie. One of the most powerful and eye opening movies I've ever seen. The acting is absolutely amazing and totally believable i thought.

I don't care too much for it................a bit too much like an afterschool special, a special they would have to play on HBO do to the content but an afterschool special nonetheless. Okay........kids do drugs.....kids swear.......kids drink.....kids have sex.....we know all of this already so what's the god damned plot? Boring........it's like watching an uncensored version of the Real World......without the acting skills.

never seen it not going to see it sounds gay

but you have to look on those days... the movies was around early 90's, on that era it's something amazing and yet it's done in a movie something that have never been done before...i for one love the movie... yup! it is a powerful movie.. and yet there is a another movie that are similar to kids it's call 'thirteen' if i not mistaken..

cheers mate!!

I remember quite vividly when Kids came out......I was in highschool.......I was the same age as the kids in the film......and I still thought it was retarded. What was amazing about it?

No, I did not like Kids, it was a complete waste of time. He was acting as if this was stuff no-one knew; the message was wasted and beyond that, the plot was simply pointless.

And I reject the argument that it was more powerful at the time. At the time this was exactly what the critics said- pointless. And I thought so too.

i qiute like it but it is definately as dark as the inside of a cello

Wow talk about extreme opinions. Got crap or excellent...anybody says ok-ish.

The thing I really liked about it was how it showed sex as a tragic event for once. Plus it really showed how easily aids could be spread.

Oh, and if you wanna bring critics into the mix, there's one critic I know of who thought the movie was outstanding..... His names Ebert, maybe you've heard of him

Screw critics..........their opinions do not factor into what movies I watch or like. Just as I'm sure my opinion does not factor into anybody else's movie going habits. Critics are useless........different people like different movies. I don't like Kids....some do. Yay for them.

It will be a cold day in hell when I take some 50+year old guy named Roger Ebert's opinion into advisement when deciding which movie I want to watch. Yeah.....I'm sure he and myself have alot in common. Next I'm going to ask him which gangsta rap albums to buy.

HAHHAAHHAAHAHAHHAHA "which gangsta rap albums to buy" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA so funny

Never seen it.. but ppl said it sux.

😂 you're funny... i will drink to that 🍺

cheers mate!!

Well......it's true. Do people honestly think that some rich old white guy has the same taste is movies as they do? Do they seriously think his opinions on movies would parallel their own? Some artsy foreign film comes out and he gives it two thumbs and a cock up........doesn't make me want to see it. Ofcourse he probably liked Kids.......he probably thought it was insightful and eye opening. Ofcourse he probably really didn't know that kids do have sex, do drugs, and curse. They didn't do that kind of stuff in 1954 when he went to high school. To everybody else on the planet who has been young sometime within the past 30 years.........it wasn't insightful because they already knew this stuff.

It wasn't that people didn't know that kids were doing that type of stuff that i cared for. I really liked how it showed how easily aids can spread, cuz it's hard to grasp something like that till you see it.

Yeah, I didn't like bully really.
