Brilliant!

A Customer from Northamptonshire, England, 3rd January, 2009

Quite simply an amazing film. Almost missed this one but I am so glad I didn't. Don't be put off by the lack of subtitles, if it was dubbed you would lose so much of the acting, which is superb. A real insight into Autism, the world of online gaming and bullying. Very cleverly filmed and, to my surprise, this captivated the whole family from the very start to the startling and unexpected ending. In just one or two places you may wonder what's real and what's fantasy, but that's the point and all becomes clear in the end. Enchanting.

A beautiful, poignant and sometimes harrowing portrayal of Asperger Syndrome and the effects of bullying

A Customer from Sheffield, 4th January, 2009

I have a son with Asperger Syndrome and this is the most accurate and powerful on screen portrayal I have seen. Greg Timmerman's acting is fantastic and I could totally identify with the mother. The bullying scenes were harrowing but, for me, the outcome was perfect - making the point without being too painful. Nic Balthazar cleverly emphasizes the point that people frequently take no notice of bullying until it is too late. I've bought the DVD and intend to show it to as many friends and family as possible.

A Customer from England, 12th May, 2009

If I could give this half a star it would be too much! A waste of time.

Its not Ben 10!

A Customer from London, 28th May, 2009

I rented it for my son thinking of Ben 10, its not! It is a rather dull European film, subtitled into English. Avoid.

Aren't some kids horrible

cloudmanwalker from from London, 20th May, 2009

I really enjoyed this story, I thought it was going to be like Carrie and Ben would extract a terrible revenge on his tormentors. It is a far more subtle film than that and I found it to be a really moving insight into the mind of a person with the condition Ben had. As a teacher I often come across autistic pupils and I am very happy to say that I have never heard of any of them being treated with anything less than respect. I thoroughly recomend this film but dont expect to be leaping out of your seat with excitement at any point.
