9/10
An excellent movie!
24 October 2006
This story is about a growing rivalry between young boys in two neighboring Irish small towns. It shows us all the experiences that those kids lived during their "war". It is an entertaining story about love, family, forgiveness, courage and friendship.

I really liked the movie because it has many relations with the real life. I think the film criticize the human conflicts and the violence that exist in the world.

I liked a sentence in a conversation between Fergus and Geronimo: "Why are we fighting? Nothing, Why else?". I think that in these words there is a very important message for people, and it is that many times humans fight without reason.

The youthful actors were comic, fantastic, joyful, touching, and totally convincing in their roles. All the actors did a perfect job. I especially liked Geronimo and Fergus, the two leaders. In addition, the picture's location is stunning, Ireland is beautiful!

Two scenes in particular were memorable: The "rain" of buttons and when the kids stopping the war to care for the little rabbit. I liked so much the end and I'd like that all wars ending that way.

I had a great time with this wonderful film. I really recommend you. It is very cute. In this film you will go through hatred, love, laughter, sadness, happiness and lots of other emotions! In conclusion this movie is a beautiful story with vibrant characters, very special moments and a valuable lesson for life.
