Life Hits (2006)

A realistically told story on youngsters life on edge. About mean girls, flocking up against each other. I wouldn't say this is everyday life everywhere, but somewhere this will be the case, like at this school in a Danish city, presumably Copenhagen.This is the Danish director Christian E. Christiansen's directorial debut. The story is about a group of 16-year-olds girls turning against one of them, Christina, after a misunderstanding caused by one of the girl's boyfriends, a mean guy, and a little lie following that. Christina's friends conclude that she is having an affair, and starts giving her hell.This is strong stuff, and probably the likes which will get parents chocked, like it did after the premiere in Denmark. Great play all over, and filmed in a realistically documentary style with hand-held camera, though not very shaky, I found this engaging to watch.A strong coming of age story, not afraid to show what's happening out there in the jungle out there we let our kids every day. Troubled youths making things worse by making it escalate into something quite out of control with theft, drugs, sex and bullying. Well worth a watch if you want to know what's going on out there.

Råzone is an awful movie! It is so simple. It seems they tried to make a movie to show the reel life. Just like Zappa did many years ago. But unfortunately Denmark lacks good young actors. Leon are by many still the little girl in "krummernes Jul", and Laura is simply not good enough to play such an important role. several times in the movie she plays with out soul and this is destroying the movie!Even though i consider it a movie you ought to see. I do not agree that the youth are behaving like this, but i think it can show how it can end, if you are letting your child down. Also it is important to support danish movies and new companies like "Film folket"!all in all I think people should see Råzone. Not because it is a great film, but because it is a movies which is dealing with important themes. I also think it is important to point out that there are some violent scenes in it, and actually it is in these scenes, Laura is acting best. - like the ending where she is holding the gun!

Well, I have had the privilege of viewing a pre-screening of this intriguing film. I don't usually comment on these things but I just couldn't stop thinking about this movie!..I have to say that Råzone really is a great film.Is it a light-hearted film? NO! Is it for the faint of heart? NO!...what it is, is a deep, thought provoking, spine chilling look into the lives of young people who unfortunately choose to take a wrong turn with their lives. The lead actors do a bang up job. Stephanie Leon gives such a convincing performance as a relentless bully messed up by her life experience that it's scary! Råzone isn't a mind numbing, shallow, meaningless movie. It's really disturbing but extremely moving and gives insight into why young people can get off track and just how bad things can go!..P.S. Råzone has an impressive musical score as well!

Raazone is a great movie.. I was lucky to see it on a screening last Saturday and was completely blown away by the class of the young actors!Christina is living alone with her dad, after her mom left them! Her friends Cecilie, Trine and Pernille are bad company! Doing drugs, stealing and beating everyone who comes in their way. Christina is very interested in the new guy called Nikolaj. But everything starts to go wrong when Cecilie suspects Christina to steal her boyfriend, Shaid! She turns everybody against her with a deadly ending!!!!The main character is Christina, played by Laura Christensen and wow she's making a stunning performance. She is really believable and shows the variety of her talent. But also the other actors playing Cecilie, Trine, Pernille, Nikolaj and Shaid is doing a great job!!I wouldn't write a lot about the plot, because you HAVE to see it!!! Would just say it has it all!!! Great movie 9/10!!!!
