Dead Poets Society (1989)

[Dir. Peter Weir]

Dead Poets Society is a kind of ambitious, cheering, break you down, but surprising at the ending. Basically you'll feel lifted up but then you slammed down but slowly you'll lifted again. The story of a group of young men who so driven up by their spirit to do something unique, something that they don't even like it before, but they were curious, they were so fervent. Well, of course, they are different each other. Some of them like to be serious, playful, alone, or even unconfident.

This movie tells you that you can't just trust a story by itself, that you must feel it to know what it actually happening, what it's actually like. John Keating (Robin Williams) is a rebellious teacher who's not bad at teaching but he brought something different, something positive to the students, something that the school can't accept, he's an optimistic man that was misunderstood. And then, his students were so influenced by him and what he did in the past, they try to be like John Keating, but it seems that at that time, it wasn't a good decision, until something that tear up all the audience happened (I cried 3 times).

There were only one flaw that I saw like what happened to Knox Overstreet with Chris. Because they two are like pretty important part to me, they both showed up a lot, somehow, main attraction of the movie. Apart from that everything is great!

True friendship like Neil and Todd have, is so beautiful. Also, everyone that plays in the movie showed their great performance, great acting. I personally love this movie and wouldn't mind watching it all over again for couple times.
