Doesn't cut too deep., 19 September 2000
Author: edward wilgar (edwardwilgar@optusnet.com.au) from Melbourne, Australia
For anyone interested in the ongoing situation in Northern Ireland this drama is worth seeing. A supergrass is someone who has given information to the authorities necessitating a new identity. Here the informer is from the Loyalist UVF rather than the IRA but his pursuers are just as ruthless.
`The Grasscutter' contains plenty of authentic detail and the spectacular New Zealand landscape, beautifully photographed is worth the price of the ticket but the film soon becomes rather conventional with car chases, fake-looking blood and too much violence for me in a somewhat contrived climax.

Super film.........., 8 September 1999
Author: Bond2a from Near Leeds, Yorkshire, UK
This is a very good film, l first saw it about 6 years ago, the video cover is not very good, and the title is a bit vauge, but it concerns a guy who turns supergrass in Ireland and gets a new life in New Zeland.
But the hit men come after him...
I have just been very lucky and found a Video of this film last week......as a very tight drama with plenty of action it`s top notch.
