FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Phillipa Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
