Given 2 years later he made gummo this is as tamed movie
This movie changed my life. And, if you skated at the time then you’d already seen or heard of a lot of the kids in it in skate videos. They basically set the tone for skaters at the time.
if you would stop “acting” during your speech, your fideos would be really great. maybe dont even film yourself at all? just let your narration be the star
Spot on review my man remember watching this flick not long after it came out i was a skateborad kid so loved it ha still have my VHS copy some where will have to dig it out n watch it again 😀
GREAT overview, makes me appreciate Kids in a whole new way
Back then I can see why this movie is fucked up but now with this generation how kids are now a days, this movie is pretty accurate tbh
Yay! You pronounced my name right. (you’d be surprised how often they get it wrong.) But yeah I completely agree, I love the unbaised nature of the film, and how real it actually feels. First time I saw it, it horrified me and made me feels super uncomfortable. But in subsequent viewings, I can’t help but appreciate the talent involved in portraying life so realistically. It’s certantly a testament to how talented Harmoy Korine really is.
Thanks for doing the review, and excellent job as always. 🙂
Never seen this film, but might watch it now. Nice video!
love your cult sandwich vids. if you haven’t already, maybe tackle some of the films of Korine! Gummo or Spring Breakers
I don’t get the ending
You described this film perfectly
Great review.. here’s a film similar to kids, called Threat made in 2006

Here’s more info as it says on the cover box “it makes kids (1995). Look like an after school special..

Awesome job! You totally nailed it!
This movie is like a typical “use protection!“ “drugs are bad!“ movie. I didnt like it personally. And how would u fucking beat up or kill a man when ure high wtf. (Never heard of/saw a stoned individual being aggressive)
Great review!
where did you get all this information???
It maybe a cult classic but it’s one of my top 5 favorite movies of all time and my favorite drama films because it shows a good message and not what to Do as a young teenager
i love every word of this. you completely expressed all my feelings about KIDS.
this movie got how mostly every kid is and acts from back then and now. it was spot on whether critics liked it or not
i love this movie
One of the great filmmakers …. Larry Clark
cult is my favorite sandwich
myself & my friends use to have masive parties based on this film
Just watched KIDS again yesterday and I agree with you 100%. I was sad to find out after watching it what happened to the guy that played Casper. He was my favourite character and I immediately went to IMDB to try and see what he’d been up to since kids, wondering if he could impress me as much as he did with his performance in kids….only to discover he hanged himself in a hotel room in Las Vegas (Bellagio no less). Very sad
I have no legs, I have no legs
I think that this and Bully are Larry Clark’s only two films. I don’t understand his aversion to deviation from his single theme; it seems that he is just uninterested in making films that don’t revolve around skater kids. It’s a shame, because I genuinely love Kids and Bully, but I’m not sure if he’ll ever make something that I find interesting again.
