As an educator, I am deeply impressed by the way the film portrays our reality. These are things that we have to deal with every single day. I had such a good laugh while watching the movie. Not necessarily because it's funny, but because it's a true representation of what challenges we face every day. We add humor to cope with the seriousness of it all. The film is a brilliant representation of what happens in our classrooms, schools and broader communities on a daily basis. It is relatable and authentic. The actors have done an outstanding job in their respective roles. I recommend that everyone watches this movie. JOB WELL DONE!!

The film doesn't make any sense. They express how the cape flats kids express themselves but there's no actual plot. About the girl that passed away, they should've gave her a proper back story as we didn't know who she was and couldn't express any empathy towards her. The exchange students seems so unrealistic and wished they did it better. The title of the movie only made sense in the beginning but throughout the movie it didn't. The singing part was just so weird and didn't fit in. It's like the producer didn't take the script serious. The actors were great but the editing was horrible. There was no flow.

What a South African movie, the characters are people we can all relate to. We all had these friends in class but the stories told and interactions is what gave it life. Real problems, real emotions and absolutely raw. A must see for South Africans, and a great insight for International viewing. The humour is very tongue in cheek, but works very well and you will be thinking about some of the things said for days after. The representation of the melting pot of society all in one class, delivers a beautiful yet wide eye conversations between each student is spectacular. Truly a fantastic movie and well done to these actors and directors and writers and the rest of the staff. Great movie.
