Jack (1996)
I don't think there is a spoiler, but I might have one without relizing it, so look put for one!

There was aomething a bit off about this film, but I, for some reason still liked it.I think it has many possible meanins depending on how you look at the story, I remebered seeing it when I was quite young... I thought that Jacks parents would have to see their child die and that was sad. I saw it when I was older and thought maybe it was about not taking life for granted and living life to its fullest, but that still didn't really seem quite right...And then I thought maybe it is about always being a kid even when your an adult, but that makes absolutely no sense with the story.......... and maybe I was right when I was a younger and I thought that it was about loosing a child... not only to death but to friends.... perhaps the aging thing was added to show a different form of somebody being picked on, as Jack was in the movie, even if they may look tougher.

I thought the relationship between jack and His mother was brillant, I really felt that, however I thought parts of the story digressed whoch gave the story multiple meanings....which is interesting to ponder, but in some cases makes the story jump around to much, adn I am the kind of person who likes movies to jump around a bit if you can not tell y my writting style.... I loved the chracters though...

please forgive me for my randomness and at the moment tired-ness....overall, it was thought provoking, sweet,and just a little bit off....
