Review of The Slaughter Rule (2002) by Jason B — 07 May 2009
The title was great but they never really utilized it in the game. It's relation comes from the suffering of the main character and his endless anguish trapped inside of it. The crazy codger of a coach keeps re-iterizing the word trust but it appears Gosling can trust no one.
This is a bold uncensored look at how even though it's rural Montana or wherever, the unlikely and the bizarre is at every turn. Characters are distinctly painted with everybody seemingly trapped, teenagers heartbreak, foster dads, dead dads, pedaphiles, paralysis and just the tiny little inkling of hope.
The ending is sudden and really ties up nothing but I guess some movies don't follow the slaughter rule. the dialogue is phenomenal and you know I'm a nut for that jazz, the first 40 minutes are great.
Solid flick.
