Great film but a bit on the dark side, Just don't mess with Jake "the Muss" Also worth a watch is the sequel "What become of the broken hearted"

Someone who was reading the book told me to watch it, its a lot different than the book from what she said. Good film.

I thought at the start, do I really want to watch this film? I actually thought to start with some of the acting was poor enough, but the actors then appeared to get into their characters more.

Ya i asked because i heard of it years ago by chance but never bothered to watch it, but I was surprised by the amount of people who have seen it skstu.

And now I cant get "whats the time mr wolf?!" out of my head :D

THey also made the gang to be quite nice people :)

That is a class fight scene in fairness.

Just finished the book for class, was OK, will have to see the movie for comparison. Wish we would've watched that instead of that Whale Rider crap.

Bleak movie that shows a lifestyle a lot of people (me included) didn't know could exist,excellent fight scenes but don't expect them to live happily ever after.

You couldn't compare it to Whale Rider ;)

Finally saw the film, thought it was pretty good and relatively similar to the book (with some pretty serious changes though). Believe it or not that is a very Hollywood ending compared to the book.
