Steve Rhodes Internet Reviews The busy, cathartic ending may be a bit much for some, but it nicely caps a most unusual tale. And it takes the biggest risk of all by leaving much to the imagination. Rated: 3/4 Jul 25, 2002 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Well, this movie had some nice parts, but boy did it not make any sense -- and that Swiss German will throw anyone. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Great Movie made in Switzerland. Before you go on under rating this Movie keep in mind, that Fredi M. Murer shows a side of Swiss that the world thinks it just not realistic. A side that shows how Swiss Goverment cares about Children. There were some Scenes I thought "this is embarrassing" but in a twisted kind of way it was entertaning. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a mysterious movie. The coincidences of the disappearances of the children are clear, but it doesn't add up to an ordinary kidnapping. The script is interspersed with some interesting commentary about the roles of parents and the value of children. Even after the children have disappeared, some of the parents don't seem to get it. Very thought provoking. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Detective quits his mission! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty weird, but really interesting.. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member 12 children go missing throughout Switzerland upon full moon. One policeman eventually figures it out, visits all berieved families, but comes back more worried than enlightened. Instead of victims he sees possible suspects in each an everyone of them. A brilliant Twin Peak type movie, highlighting the need to forego money for the sake of our environment and sanity. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
