Circle of Lies (2012) Reviews
Average
Actually I did not watch movie with this kind of rating to save my movie time but I watched this one because it has only one review!! Maybe the promotional team was totally failed or their advertisement campaign was a total loss. By the way I watched the movie with a poor opinion about the movie so my I kinda enjoyed it. The acting is not so great, plot is not unique, but there was some message in the film. Although they failed to develop message deeply. There is some inconsistency. Overall it is an average movie, but do not expect much from the film either. If you have a lot of spare time then go for it :)
Why I decided to move
After Enduring this, I was chased with horrible reminders of the wort acting, UNBELIEVABLY UNREALISTIC PLOT and was eventually forced to relocate from Australia. I left my wife and child Steph without a word, all because this film. Now, I live behind a restaurant surviving on rotting scraps of left over beets but finally I can sleep without vividly offensive images attached with every beach. F**K off Denise. You're a super slag. I miss my wife. And if anyone happens to be walking around Yemen near the Antio Bistro I've hidden a butter knife under the brick to the left, meet me near the rubbish cans around twelve and cut my eyes out. My only wish is that I'll never have to endure anything even remotely similar.
I'M THE PRINCESS NOW
This is Australia's unrealistic approach to the problem of high school bullying. Denise Dixon (Hilary Caitens) returns to high school after a rumor has been spread by her BFFs that she had sex with 30-50 guys. She is bullied and harassed by everyone for the first 20 minutes of the film. Then one by one her closest friends break with the pack mentality to stand by her. That is pretty much it. The story is formulaic. Kirsty (Anna Lawrence) is the bad girl in all of this. She is a combination of Miley Cyrus and Fairuza Balk. Linda (Karina Banno) is part of the group and Ryan Harrison plays Aiden, hero of the swim team, Denise's former boyfriend now Kirsty's boyfriend...I think you know where this is headed. The action is on the lame side as the film is taken up by dialogue. The bullying in this film is organized harassment that is given a wink and a nod by the adults who are supposed to stop it. The film plot formula appears to be on the level of a young teen, while the topic and language is adult. Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex. Magazine nudity. Sex slang.
Bullying
Excellent movie. Better than the movie Lincoln but not quite as good as the movie Argo. Very realistic concerning school children in their teens trying to grow up too fast while trusting adults at their word. Also in the film was the typical high school power struggle. The theme of the movie is a little too mature for children to watch alone but with an accompanying parent I see no problems. The movie was a definite surprise since I wasn't expecting much. I would call this movie a diamond in the rough. The movie wraps up nicely and during the movie viewer must try to figure out why the children act as they do. I watch hundreds of films each year and this one was a true delight. In addition the scenery was nice and the directors didn't go all out on hiring famous actors and creating elaborate scenery.
All I say that this movie should be watched with Adult supervision if you're below the age of 16. As it does tend to have some intense scenes and messages behind it.
I thought Circle of Lies was a very well made movie. I loved the many messages behind this movie. A note to everyone is to read in between the lines as there is a reason behind everything a person does. Although you won't need to analyse it to much scrutiny, it is really an enjoyable movie filled with great drama, intense story lines and a great conclusion. I really felt for each character whom each actor brought to life. This movie has many messages in it which makes it a very educational movie but an inspiring and enjoyable movie. If you like movies such as Mean Girls, Cruel Intentions, this may be the movie for you.
