If "Ferris Bueller" were a mystery movie...
11 June 2019
That would probably best describe Extracurricular Activities, a (kinda) dark comedy revolving around a high school kid named Reagan (Colin Ford, of Under the Dome) who helps "assist" some of his fellow students who have problems with their parents. This raises the attention of a police detective (Timothy Simons) at the scene of deadly accidents who puts two and two together- he thinks- and soon is the only one convinced the student is up to no good.

Ford and Simons pretty much are the main reason to check this out, the same way that Bueller and Ed Rooney were perfect antagonists in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". One issue- some of the secondary characters are either too earnest (Reagan's parents) or appear to be ungrateful.
