When a film is over 3hrs long, it is already facing an uphill struggle.
Certain demographics get put off by films with durations this length. So the question posed before the film, is does the film warrant its length?
I won't beat around the bush, as I'll say it's totally worth it.
Showing what seems like a year of a school group while focusing on a particular teachers classes sound so simple with great potential of being effective viewing.
A teacher's greatest part of their job is seeing the progress of a student and seeing them learn right in front of them. This films gives that and more.
This is such a heartwarming watch that took me back to my primary school days.
Seeing the personalities of all the different pupils, how certain ones connected well with others and how they were unknowingly such a strong group.
It all just reminded me of the group I was in at primary school, where most of us where there from nursery all the way through to year 6.
Seeing them develop and learn was such rich content and makes you so happy as the way you see them in class and interact makes you want them to succeed as much as Mr. Bachmann wants them to.
For a film that is 3hrs 37mins long, this has to be recommended. It flew by, and that alone shows that the film clearly works.
Rating : 8/10
