i rent zero day from the local video store last week . i have never hear of the film and i have my reservation about it . just from look at the box i know the film be an indie film and therefore the quality be go to be less than a mainstream film . i can tell you that after i finish watch zero day i immediately start it from the beginning again . the film be clearly follow the basic outline of what happen at columbine high school of april of 1999 and but what strike me be how believable the two lead actor be . my first time through watch this film i wasn not entirely sure if what i be watch be actual tape leave behind by the shooter at columbine . in the back of my mind i know what i be watch could not be real but at the same time the acting be so convincing you have to keep give your head a shake . be the film disturb . absolutely . be you go to see thing that will make you question the merit of the film . probably . i think what most people will find disturbing be they will actually have feeling for the two lead character and calvin and andre ( play by cal robertson and andre keuck ) . why be that problematic for some people . calvin and andre be plan a massacre at their high school . i know for myself and i felt an immense sadness for andre and calvin . i have empathy for them because their life have come to such a horrific point . they have fall so deeply through crack that they have begin a journey down a road which could have be stop and if only people around them have take notice to their plight . zero day be a phenomenal film . it give you an up close and personal look to event that most of u will only ever see the conclusion to on the news . it leave you think about the life involve . and it leave you perplex how people get to this point . a week after see this film and i still think about it . those of you who have not see zero day please keep in mind the following represent the film be an independent with little to no budget and the film be shoot on camcorder . the material in the film be disturb . this be not mainstream hollywood and there be no happy end . but if you can put all that aside and zero day be a film that will stick with you and just maybe help you to open your eye a little .
