User Reviews

A magical, beautiful film.

So... superfluous story courtesy of IndustriousAnegel. I truly hope you don't have children and if you do I don't know whether to feel most sorry for them or for you. This was a magical, beautiful film crafted between both the animal and the human element and blended into an unforgettable experience. The director also deserves praise for how the two elements are presented to the viewer. Anyone who has ever kept a caterpillar in a matchbox will relate to this film and for me it invoked many more long lost memories of my child hood. Try reviewing Mad Max next because I think this is more "up your street". Maybe the scenery was the overall winner but who cares when the story grips you like a vice in the wilderness.
