Simply beautiful!

This is one of those forgotten gems that will forever stand the test of time! This story of two enemy's at war with one another, being forced to live and work together to survive has been put on screen hundreds of times, and this film did it perfectly! Such a powerful, moving, and thought provoking story with such brilliant commentary on an assortment of social and worldly issues that are still prevalent today.

This film explores, questions, and dissects issues such as war, slavery, racism, tolerance, and the human condition in such brilliant ways!

I have wanted to watch this since I saw it as a kid (early 2000s baby) and it lived up to and exceeded all my expectation! I'm so glad that I watched it and was able to fully comprehend its central message and themes because it truly blew me away!

It's not a fast paced, suspecncefull Sci-fi movie, but instead a movie that takes its time to explore the characters, their identities, and issues they face internally and externally in a beautiful manner.

I don't think I can praise this film enough, I was speechless at how touching this film was and how deeply effected I was by it.

This film should be shown in schools and seen by everyone at least once in their lives because it can teach us all a few important lessons.

This should be a cult classic and it makes me sad that it isn't!

Truly an amazing film!!!!
