I just finished watching this movie, and for the first time, I disagreed with RottenTomatoes.com's consensus about it. Well of course, different people, different opinions, but I was really able to relate with Craig, thus, I found the movie a lot more than "mildly entertaining."
I kind of get Craig's feeling about things. I get into sudden bouts of depression from time to time with apparently no deep reason. Of course, it doesn't mean there's no reason at all, but the small things that get to you could pile up and just put you into a situation where you'll go emo and feel suicidal (well, not really. Alam kong madalas kong sabihing gusto ko nang mamatay, pero, I really don't mean that)
But the bottomline is, people really need social capital (NUKS SOCIO 10 ♥) in order to get by life. People where you can really open up to and just be yourself. And another thing, you've just got to go for the things you'd really like. Seriously, if I have Craig's drawing ability and discovered it during my stay in Pisay, I'll totally get out of high school and go somewhere...art-sy.
Unfortunately, I don't have that. Add to that my inability to figure out what I really want to become, and what I am capable of doing. That thought just makes me depressed.
