Review of Hello Herman (2012) by Aaron D — 22 Feb 2013
Hello Herman is the story of a teenager, without apparent problems, who suddenly committed the unthinkable. Throughout the movie, we discover and try to understand what pushed him to do this unforgivable action.
This movie shows a panel of situations that you could find around you, a need to be recognized and loved, a father who leaves home, the death of a child, a mother who works too much to pay the bills... and that is why this movie can involve everybody and strongly touches everybody.
But despite the fact that this movie deals with human beings, their relations, their family issues, and their personality, it also shows how our actions can affect and have an impact on others' life. None of our actions can be free and meaningless.
Finally, what makes Hello Herman a current and touching movie is that it raises important and actual topics like bullying, the 2nd amendment, death penalty, video games violence, killings in school... and that is why we cannot be insensitive to it.
