This movie is pretty weird, but I still gave it an 8 because I am easily entertained. Thurston is so adorably cute how he is so into Caroline. It is kind of annoying at times how Kat Dennings has to narrate the story. I like the cast of stars in the film. It's sad how it is probably a real depiction of most towns in that they are filled with kids having sex and doing drugs. I had seen it before and didn't even remember that there was someone else than the obvious who ends up being the serial killer. It reminded me of Fargo (tv show) how there was some guy who lost his mind and was plaguing the whole town by murdering off innocent people. It ends alright with Caroline and Thurston and their favorite spot standing making out and her saying how life is worth living even if it's not forever.

I just love that villain from DC comics doomsday he is awesome just like the hulk who is my most favorite hero ever in marvel comics when i saw this film that name keep popping up in my head that why this film is called daydream nation it should be called doomed nation because of the things female lead character was doing i wished this movie would finish so i could do other work but no i kept watching this only for Kat Dennings she is one actress that i really like other then that this film is below average & a mediocre attempt nothing more.The Plot:Caroline Wexler just moved from big city to a small town she is a lovely girl who goes to high school but finds her teacher attractive & handsome then starts a sexual affair with him also Thurston is a guy who likes Caroline this starts a conflict which will be very hard for Caroline to deal with.The character of Caroline Wexler has no moral values or self respect & code the teacher had no fault in this he fell for her,all she do is complain about everything instead of helping out others & having sex with random people,behaves like a slut most of the time,one thing i hated was why Caroline was even with Thurston he was a complete looser who cant trust a girl second Barry Anderson was the only guy who deserves Caroline & she dumps him.The Cast:all of the actors were nice to see but Josh Lucas & Kat Dennings do their best despite the bad script,pointless dialogs.May i ask why this was not a soft core movie the makers were so desperate to strip Kat Dennings naked but she is just one beautiful lady the audience wont like it hence they gave her a bad role which i say she nailed it perfectly.Overall if you love Kat Dennings like me then Daydream Nation 2010 is for you my rating is 4/10.

What the F..., I was right, I should have stopped watching this movie at 15 minutes. Here are some notes I took while watching this BS. 25 year old teen agers are cool. Drugs are cool, writer is a anti-Christ. Industrial fire, incest line, serial killer, science class drugs, hipster song track during pedophile sex, guns are evil Larry, Jesus Freaks are silly, bathroom slut with cool hip lines, converts another girl into a slut, drugs are still cool, hipster song sex again. Xmas party slut, metro sexual hair color, hipster song at happy ending. I guess this feeds the CIA propaganda. Looks like a lot of sheep enjoyed this. I searched it and it seems like this is a thought of as a good movie.

This one just happened to appear on Showtime today. I started to watch it and about 15 minutes in I said "ok I will record this and watch it later." I kept watching and at about 30 minutes in I was still watching. I kept watching more and more of it and saying I would watch it later. Pretty soon the whole 1 and 3/4 hours went by and I found myself unable to tear myself away. It was impossible to stop. I was hypnotized.I usually don't find much to like about movies these days. They are violent, loud, juvenile, predictable and boring. Finally one that has real characters, in real situations, with real thoughts and feelings. The characters are mature and well drawn with depth and the kind of complexity that says volumes about the observational skills of the writer. It was sensitively directed and acted. And you know what the best thing about it was? At any moment in the film I had no idea where it was going. I have seen thousands of films and I can spot a cliché a mile away. This one was like no other film I have ever seen. Totally unpredictable.Do whatever you have to do to see it. Treat yourself to something different then you can go back to films with drugs, car crashes, guns, and urban horror stories. Just give yourself one chance to see a really well crafted and mature work of art.
