Brick

A teenage loner investigates his ex-girlfriend’s disappearance by entering his high school’s hidden crime network. As he follows clues through rival groups and dangerous alliances, he must rely on determination, quick thinking, and a wary understanding of whom to trust.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like fast, unusual mysteries with hard-boiled dialogue and outsider protagonists; not for you if you prefer naturalistic teen dramas or straightforward plots.
