The
2008 Sundance Film Festival hit, "Assassination of a High School
President" wide release was prevented due to its own ambitions. Not
having the finances to be distributed on the big screen, DVD has now
allowed audiences to see what would be considered the “Heathers” of this
generation.Finally, there is a film that allows all of us to forget
about the mockery that the "High School Musical" trilogy made of the
first truly turbulent time in all of our lives.
“Assassination of a High School President” successfully brings crime
drama to a realm that almost every audience can relate to. Nothing in
this film seems too far-fetched, and its brilliant script and
performances should be able to keep the attention of any movie goer. The
most impressive thing about this film is that it is witty enough to
allow the viewer to accept a story that centers around: sex, drugs and
violence all involving teenagers. A must see form fans of modern film
noir, and those who embrace “American Pie” as the film that defines
their generation.
