Review
This film is about a boy who falls in love with a girl he went to high school with and after starting to get jealous starts to kill those who she has slept with and who she is friends with which pushes him away from her. As the film develops you see that love can not only be a positive to your life and those around you but it can also effect people in a very negative way and be very destructive. I found this film was rather slow at times however I did also like this film and the way it was portrayed.

I rate this film a 3/5

As a result of this she gets put in an isolation in her own mind for a year due to the government wanting to use it on prisoners which is only an hour in the real world. ...
