And in contrast to war, there is a different answer. If you didn't get my music reference don't worry, this is still about this movie and you should get what I'm trying to figure out with my question nevertheless. Can someone who has become a certain way (due to certain living standards, paths he or she took and other stuff) actually change? It's a main theme in this movie.
The movie may be predictable (although I had a moment of thinking of too many double crosses and coincidences),but it still is nice to watch. You have many different characters and all of them have certain flaws ... and you see them develop and overcome some of those flaws ... blossom to take the seed analogy ... but are the roots stronger or the mind too weak still? And where exactly would a good development go, if it happens?

Bad seeds - what are they good for?
Bad Seeds inserts the dawn of admirable roots to the viewers
Lovely blend of love , hatred, friendship, empathy can be perceived through this movie "Bad seeds" . Like the headline of Bad seen mentioned, it injects an inception of admirable and constructive roots to the audience which is exactly the converse of the title. It tells the story a boy - Wael . With the lessons and tricks which he experienced from his personal life is been introduced to the troubled teens in the support organization. The director Kheiron has captured the movie astonishingly while giving the audience a chance to compare Wael's past childhood life with present situations with those 6 teens. WOW it was indeed "SPLENDID" . All the actors were so good and apt in their roles with stunning performance from Kheiron as Wael. As it would've been easy for him as he was the hero and director (Just kidding) . Bravo Kheiron. P.S : Watched the movie in Netflix with English Dub & English Subtitles
Feel good, funny and witty
A really good movie. It takes place in a Parisian suburb but brings a different view on it than main movies. It and plays right its cards with humour - the duo Deneuve - Kheiron is splendid!, positive situations and care for its characters. Of course, it does not reinvent cinema codes and storytelling uses some 'by the book' and predictables means, but I had a great time.
