Synopsis: Shawn has an affair with his girlfriend's mother. Tate lives with his grandparents to whom he is aggressive. Claude has an abusive father and a passive mother. Peaches lives with her father who treats her well as long as she behaves according to his religious standards.
Appraisal: The conflicts between teenagers and their parents is the central theme of this film. Several aspects of this problem are shown, but it is all one-dimensional and caricatural, and not in a satirical way. The result is more tedious than shocking. Example of moronic scene: a guy is drinking beer and pissing, and the camera lowers so we can see his penis and the piss coming out of it, then it rises again to head level - why would we be interested in looking at his penis when we can hear perfectly well that he is pissing?
