Movie Reviews

Film.com - 8/10 by Tom KeoghA satisfying love story about two very different people with a common cause, people who endure trials of trust and faith in each other.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 4/10 by Sean AxmakerDirector Jean Stewart isn't merely clumsy with character; she hasn't the chops to show us the joy and exhilaration Christine feels in the freedom of solo runs.

User Review - 8/10 by Warren Fa good movie...the production seems indie-ish,and even with an old pro :lmueller-stahl,the acting is a bit rough too..but an inspirational story carries the film off..and the story,along with the story of the comrades makes this a must see
User Review - 6/10 by Paul DIt's nice to have a film come of out of South Africa which isn't focussing on political or social divisions. Some of the acting may be suspicious, but it is a decent story.
