Audience Member Pretty good movie. Odd for a Canadian movie but it's all based on a true Canadian story and acting was not half bad. 6.4/10 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty bad, even for a Canadian production Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Decently acted historical piece. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member i saw this movie on the guide on our satellite, and i only turned it on cuz my civics teacher had talked about it earlier that day...it wasnt a bad movie, all in all, considering this is based on something that happened in the 1930's. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting because it is based on a disturbing true story.. it wasn't a 'scary' movie, but it freaked me out a bit anyway Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Oooh, denne e snåle - åtriste!
