Review of Mean Creek (2004) by Dan S — 10 Nov 2010
A devastating movie concerning the ultimate revenge plot amongst some young kids, who aim to get back at a high school bully (Josh Peck). Peck is a revelation in this movie, and the overall cast is phenomenal.
It is disturbing, but extremely effective in many ways, and even though it has its share of problems (the two dads plot seems a bit out there), the ending is also haunting and completely unforgettable.
Although "Straw Dogs" remains the ultimate revenge-bully film, this comes awful close to toppling it.
