Yeah that was a great movie. A few things annoyed me though. I don't think they put enough emphasis on the fact that her dad was molesting her and the bullies didn't use any racial slurs on the black kid. Like, I hate it when they shy away from these kinds of things. It's a movie about a clown that eats children, why are they pussy footing this ****. If the movie was rated R it barely got that rating, too. Those were two huge missed opportunities to really explore the realities of these situations for the sake of keeping it a little less offensive.
