We all loved it. I will say as a teacher I wasn't in love with the way the adults of the school were portrayed but that is how those movies roll. I wish it had done a bit better box office but if it improves due to the good reviews and word of mouth it should do well enough to let other movies like it be made by major studios.

On edit, I just read something that make me realize how good this film was, the way it handled the coming out. It wasn't just once and done but a multitiered process like it is in real life. Heck as a teacher I still come out to new people on a fairly regular basis.
