Full review

Very bad things is directed by Peter Berg and it´s his first film as director,some debut !

The film is an authentic kick on the face of the conservative American society.It´s the antithesis of the American dream.The perfect woman and man,perfect houses,perfect wedding,perfect life,nothing of this exit in this film.

When it was present for the first time,it was very criticized,expecially for the end of the film.
Critical censured the use of a physical discapacitation as a cruel comical recurse.
Perhaps they be right,it´s no good,but I think that there a lot of things more censured.For example,the violence,that we can see it in a lot of films,but this is normal.

************

They do it,and decided not said nothing about all that they pass in this crazy weekend.

They come back to their town and nobody said nothing,but with the days some of them are nervous and the others are afraid because think that he can tells the history and they could go to the prison.
