    I don’t understand the hype with this one. Sure well known actors,nice places and storyline but that’s it. Lots of unnecessary scenes and seems to me like the director tried to imitate the independent European cinematography and failed. I couldn’t distinguish the actual director’s personal touch or glimpse but I noticed elements of other directors combined. The theme could have had such great potential but for me it definitely failed to capture the story how it should have. I feel like…

    Watched it a while ago it still makes my heart break. It gives you a heavy feeling I still think about it from time to time

    I was shocked after watching this. I knew what the real story was about but it really made my heart stop when the sa scene was happening. The way Hilary Swank is portraying Brandon brings tears to my eyes. She portrays him as a kind hearted, good-intentioned person, unaware of the horrors of the world and how evil people can be. I literally fell in love with him and his personality. It is def a movie that stayed in my heart.

    Pretty underrated movie I liked it very much 
    Really different from other films I’ve seen and I actually don’t get the hate 
    It touched me so much that I couldn’t sleep (I made the mistake to watch it at 2am) and gave me tears 
    Definitely the meaning is very strong in this one 
    Such a sad serious theme portrayed in a more hopeful fantasy way
