The Quiet is a movie which doesn't get made often, with the ick subject of incest lingering in the heavy and must I add, depressing plot, it doesn't fail to give the viewer what it wants, in fact, the only thing that bugged me was that it was too short, too many things were left unfinished, but then I guess not every story ends like Cinderella.

For starters, the characters were so created, they wern't pinched from some loopy and thoughtless teenage movie, they forced you to respect them, and care for them which in my opinion, is one of the greatest keys to a successful movie.

The ending is very fulfilling, the way everyone stepped into each others shoes was beautifully crafted, things were to be expected, but then some surprises caught you at the most unusual time.

The downside to this movie is how predictable it is, some of the scripts were slightly cliché, but then you wouldn't expect a 17 year old girl to think like Shakespeare.

This is a must see for every teenage girl who feels excluded from the real world, it might make you want to stay further away, but then it shows you that no matter how different you are from so many people, opposites do really attract.

I loved this film, it's not for everyone, but if you can handle a bit of nasty, and some foul language, I recommend this you watch it!
