David M. (KingofGarageSales) from FAYETTEVILLE, AR
Reviewed on 11/12/2022...
I think the film was called "Elephant" because it's slow, ponderous, and plodding. It's supposed to emulate the Columbine High School shootings but most of the film is taken up with watching various students walking down hallways in homes; across a high school gym; riding their bikes home, etc. It takes an interminable amount of time to get to the action of the film, as it was shot like a high school film class project. In the end, I was hoping the shooters would take out the guy with the camera, just to end this disaster. 1 star.

This is a chilling film that portrays the different points of view of a Columbine-like school day.
