Felt like coming home..., 13 February 2006
Author: gryphonskydancer from New Zealand
Watching this movie felt like I was watching a slice out of my own life, or what I sometimes wish my life could have been.
I know that everyone's entitled to their own opinion about a movie but in this case you really should look beyond the low budget and actually look at the time and effort put into this film.
I found it to be really compelling and I loved the characterizations of some of the people in it - they could almost have been people that I know, just larger than life.
Perhaps I was lucky in that I caught it on the big screen as part of the film festival, something about that made it a winner with me, I've since seen it on DVD and I don't think it lost anything in translation.
Well done guys, I'm looking forward to the next project.
My life on film, 17 June 2007

My friends and I watched this movie about two weeks ago, I'm not a big fan of NZ movies but this one is brilliant. I'm always seeing NZ films about the other side of the culture here. I'm not meaning to insult anyone as all films are loved by the people they speak to. This was like my own life, the characters and where the scenes took place. I could pick holes in the obvious things I guess people on this site look at but I won't. I think I'm in love with one of the actors too, I've tried looking for info on him but nothing. Alass! unless they are on Shortland street they don't exist. Anyway I love romantic films, so go get your box of chocolates and tissues.
A film which will appeal to the younger audience, with an interesting dilemma., 15 August 2006

I enjoyed this film. It was a good slice of young Auckland life and fairly reflects a typical difficulty confronted by young adults as they try to discover what is important to them in their relationships and friends. The cat scene was a welcome change and cute. The domestic violence conclusion was cleverly played out and appropriate. I liked the performances of the actors. Female actresses gave strong performances. I liked the directors comments, these should not be missed by any aspiring young film directors out there. A bit too much vomiting at the beginning for me. Music was effectively interwoven through the story. Hopefully this group will receive encouragement from funding providers to continue with this good work.
