I watched this movie ages ago and remembered liking it, and then ended up watching it again recently, mostly due to the fact that I couldn't find anything else on netflix. I loved it. It absolutely held up over time, and watching it again as an adult sparked all these bittersweet nostalgic memories of that short fleeting time of your life. It was hilarious and touching and the characters seemed engaging and real, probably since most if not all are musicians instead of typical Hollywood actors. It's one of those movies that looks easy to make in a way, but is actually really hard to pull off. It definitely was ahead of it's time.

i first saw this movie at the sundance film festival this year, and being a teenager myself i found the movie to be quite appealing. these kids are out of the ordinary and very unexpected to be in a movie of this stature but with the right dialog and junk they made the movie a complete success. i enjoyed this movie more then others but i highly recommend releasing and watching this movie. it is a mixture of witty comments and hilarious reality. capturing the essence of high school, high school record has topped my favorites list and hopefully has a chance to be released into theaters. i truly thank all of the kids who put the hard work into making this film, it helped me cry my eyes our in laughter.

I saw this film at Sundance this year and at first I didn't know what to think. The film is very raw and almost appears to be something you can make. That is NOT the case. Once the film gets going you get hooked. The story is solid and does a great job building up the plot and characters which is impressive because of the nature of the film. Basically, its not like all the rest of the films you see. The characters are so unique and entertaining, they themselves make the movie. All in all, this movie was very well done for what it is. I recommend seeing it if you have an appetite for distinction. Please release this movie! And please give us some memorable quotes!

I saw this movie at Sundance 2005 and was stunned at how bad it was, although based on the catalog description I was excited to see it. Supposedly a "mockumentary" of two high school students making a documentary of high school life, it featured bad acting, bad directing, completely lack of engaging characters as written, and all-around is a total bust. I love good movies about high school, and this is not one of them. The characters are one-dimensional and self-consciously "cool" although they are supposed to be outcasts. You get the overall impression of a bunch of people sitting around making an on-purposely-bad movie to show their friends, yet somehow it got into Sundance. Mystifying.
