leplatypus This movie has the same thematic than Wolfe's book : a girl's experience in campus life, and particularly about what happens outside the studies… The focus is the fraternity. I never know this kind of membership but this opportunity for parties, booze is shared by both medias and i'm sure this grand ceremony with pledges, robes, ceremony is actually accurate as it seems totally American… Hilary is totally convincing as this new student and she is all the more excellent than she is one of the kind : it's really someone else compared to the lascivious, no clothes, no brain blondes whom we are fed usually. The mystery surrounding the real activities of this female fraternity is thrilling. However, the edit misleads totally the content : from the start, you expect to find paranormal, devilish motives and there are hints for that and at the end, it's just criminal fact. So it's a bit disappointing and i have the feeling to have been cheated !
zedex Spoilers Dying to Belong is about a girl in her freshman year of college whose best friend is killed during hazing. She investigates whether it was really an accident or if there is something more sinister going on. This is an OK film, not as good as some of the comment on here say ("Best TV movie ever" is a gross exaggeration), but decent all the same. The acting is good, for the most part, the girl playing Kim over acted her way through every scene, making her part in the ending too obvious. Speaking of the ending, it was a little too predictable, not because of the writing but because of the direction. The way we see it, a girl is on the roof of a church or something being told that she'll win "Best Pledge" if she hangs a banner. We then see her friend on the ground realising she's disappeared, then the girl falling. This means the audience already knows she was forced onto the roof, which means the next 45 minutes of what's supposed to be tense is actually less exciting than the start of the film. Still, its worth watching, 7/10
Kektokio Something made me tape this film when it came on TV. I hadn't seen any previews, been told about it or anything. All I knew about it was what it said in the TV guide.. and I must admit, that didn't make it sound appealing. But I'm glad I did tape it, because this is an excellent movie.But how bad could a movie which stars the girl from "Sometimes They Come Back Again", the guy from "Saved By The Bell", and the pregnant girl who stole Matt's car in an episode of "7th Heaven" be anyway!?!I recommend this movie to anyone.
yazizhere I absolutely loved this movie. It has an all-star cast. The multi-faceted story of a girl entering a college, joining a sorority, and jumping into a relationship is so typical of what happens to many girls around that age. I found it helpful as I was on my way to college when I first viewed this film.10/10
