the movie is very raw, but it made me ask "where the fuck are the parents?". pretty well made in terms of how real and disturbing it was but for some reason I didn't like it that much.

It would have been pretty messed up seeing this movie at age 13, but I didn't so maybe that's why I don't think this was truly shocking. However I really liked the rawness of certain scenes, and the honest dialogues and acting. I could not love more Chloe Sevigny than when I watched this.

I felt terribly sad after viewing this film; it stayed with me for a long time. Probably because it is so true to life.

By judging the cover, I expected another artsy '90s flick about trendy teens & their hopes and dreams. Thank god it was a dirty mess that made me wake up after all the French '60s films I've seen.

I both hate and love this film. I love it as it stands as a work of art, raw look at how some teens live. But as it reminds me a bit of those awkward younger years, all the peer pressure and hormones wafting around like a bad fart...well...one can't help but cringe a bit.

Repugnant, yet engrossing, Clark and Korine treat us to an odyssey of inhuman behavior as a slew of thuggish, painfully recognizable youths populate the shaky screen. Acting as both cultural counterpoint to other so-called prophecies of urban decay such as La Haine or the comparatively subdued Do the Right Thing and probing study of modern youth, Kids is a harrowing experience on all fronts.

I wanted to be like these kids the first time I watched it...it took 2 times later for me to realize how happy I am to be a loser.

A fantastic and powerful film. It gets me everytime I see it. Clark may have veered into questionable territory in his later career, but here he is right on his game.

I've read some reviews about this film, most of them not positive. Clark's thematic is hard to digest, it literally leaves one hopeless about youth at the end. At the same time, there's a series of interesting shots in this film, as well as the fact that its real teenagers playing these roles, not twenty year olds.

Imo its not overrated This might be the only movie that actually deserves the cult created around it
