I very much enjoyed this film. Viggo was stellar, and the whole cast was great. Great locations, set design, music, and story line. Important themes. Must watch for every American family, young and old.

I didn't plan on seeing this in the theater but I'm glad I did for the full experience. A great piece of work- heartfelt performances, and brilliant music.

There are two types of viewers responses, those that are looking for an Independence Day type of shallow blockbuster, and those who think and feel a bit more deeply and are looking for an interesting story that is heartfelt with surprises. This films delivers to the latter- and I am quite amazed at some of these negative reviews. I will say, you need to stick with this film to the very end- and I could see why some people say it was slow moving, if judging by the first half of the film. I am rarely so positively affected after a film (as in this case) where I will be emailing a friend late at night to recommend it. It is also interesting that most viewers either love or hate this film- no middle ground. I need to learn to love the haters.
