It took me a while, but I do understand
the concept of suicide. It's similar to a coyote chewing off it's leg to escape a trap. It is an escape from pain or feeling trapped. Since we are human and have the intelligence to understand death, we also understand that death is an end to pain.
What a lot of people have to really understand though is that this pain is internal and only really exists in the mind. It hardly has to do with pain from external sources. If that were the case then we'd have mass suicides in poor countries like Afghanistan. Instead even poor people find a reason to live. They'd look at middle-class problems to be little compared to theirs. I believe suicide has more to do with depression and internal pain than to do with whether you got fired from you job or whatever life threw at you. Life was meant to be full of pain. Go back in history and see how easy our lives are today in modern society compared to say a caveman. They had to run from predators everyday for chrissakes. Lived in caves and had to survive on hunting and gathering. After years and years of just trying to survive you'd think they would just feel like giving up and committing suicide too. They didn't and they survived long enough to create another generation of humans.
So this is why suicide has to do with an individuals view of the world, not the problems they have to face. Might even be a chemical imbalance and they need antidepressants. There are people who say things like, "Oh boo hoo my parents beat me" and tell these people to get over it because there are others with similar or bigger problems. The thing is a depressed person may not be able to see past their own pain even if they tried. So a few words of encouragement isn't the answer. Usually they heard enough of that. They probably heard more words like, "worthless, lazy, not paying attention etc.". Which makes them more depressed and those problems just get worse. It could be that modern society gives us too much time to think and dwell on our problems instead of spending most of our time trying to survive like primitive man.
Either way though the best thing for a depressed person to do is to see a psychiatrist before they attempt suicide. At least try to find a solution before committing suicide. Try saving up $1500 and go on a vacation down in the tropics just to shake your life up a bit. Sometimes a breath of fresh air in your life can help cure depression. A lot of people get depressed just because their life is going stale, so the best cure could be to just put some spice into it. Since you wanna die anyway then go bungi jumping, skydiving, scuba diving, etc. At least experience what it feels like to stare death in the face before actually doing it. Sometimes trying new things in your life, regardless of your problems, does help. I mean if you're gonna commit suicide regardless at least sell everything you got and blow all your money on a trip to Bermuda. You've got nothing to lose anyway so you should at least have one big blast before you die.
Ok this is another long review. Not a real criticle one just my opinions on suicide. Hey a movie like this deserves long reviews because it makes you think.
