Hmm... This started with a very dark but intriguing premise as a mysterious teenage character (the title character Jasper Jones) pulls our adolescent protagonist out of bed in the middle of the night to "help" him. He leads the boy to a teenage girl who is hanging dead from a tree on his property. But slowly the movie loses momentum and ends in a very unsatisfying manner with lots some unanswered questions and emotional letdowns. Strong setting and strong performances with some good individual scenes but overall, it's weak on story.
