Movie Reviews of Once Were Warriors
Movie Review: Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
There is somethning fuzzy about this not so fuzzy movie. Beth and Jake could make it if... if things were different. This is so very sad. They love each other - they love their children - but they have no chance. It's like all the people living in the ghettos - black or white. And it has the glorious Cliff Curtis though he plays a rapist - thank god it's not a 6 year old child - but still - she does not agree to the sex. I won't even say if he crawled... Anyway, anything with Cliff is good and this is one of the best.Movie Review: Great Film
Summary: 5 Stars
I first heard about this highly controversial and critically acclaimed film about a decade ago because of its vast amount of violent content... this movie is really well written, acted, directed... you're really going to enjoy watching this movie over and again... however, this film does have a lot of violence, including rape, incest, domestic violence, drug and alcohol abuse, and much more... but this is still one of the best movies i've ever seen and i highly recommend it to everyone.Movie Review: one of my favorite movies of all time w/scenes I never saw before
Summary: 5 Stars
I have loved this movie for well over a decade after catching it on the Independant Film Channel one day. Had several copies on VHS (was always getting people to watch it and never once did anyone not like it) and went as far as to get a DVD copy from Europe once but my girlfriend has that copy. This one I got had several scenes I had never seen before which blew me away. The copy itself was great (no scratches, no skips). I was EXRTREMELY happy with this purchase.Movie Review: Powerful & Gripping
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a powerful and gripping film that tells a story that is so true for many people. At times this movie is very difficult to watch as it portrays quite accurately depicts the consequences of domestic violence, rape, suicide, drug use, and gang life. Yet, it is almost impossible to look away. The acting is superb and the story telling. If you have never seen this movie it is a must see and will be sure to bring up dialogue with whoever you may watch it with.Movie Review: Great movie, but very depressing
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this movie while in Australia visiting my wifes family. About 8 of us sat and watched a DVD version there. They had all seen it and were familar both with the movie and the problems with the Moari culture - very similar to the US American Indian reservations. When this movie was over everyone was speechless. Very well written and thought provoking movie. Do not think that this is an uplifting movie or a happy everafter movie - it is not.
