10/06/2013 alsome movie just the way how i see my people in the olden days See more 02/07/2012 Good enough, with some interesting topics, but relies far too much on the intensity of Temuera Morrison to pull it through. A good peace keeping version of Jake Heke, this character should stay in 'Once were Warriors' and 'What becomes of the broken Hearted' and not influence or be copied into any other character. See more 09/18/2009 not 2 bad 4 a kiwi movie See more 11/30/2008 Pretty gruesome at times, but really good! See more 07/31/2008 Dim-witted, illogical, attempt to create a "Maori thriller" tied in with problems of native land rights and illegal marijuana farming has little to offer in terms of compelling, likeable characters nor is it a story that's worth telling to anybody. A film with an obvious and poorly realized agenda is never better than a film with a decent story and cast. Boo. See more 02/14/2008 Excellent movie...made me homesick. See more Read all reviews
