Good music, but the manuscript may not please everybody, 15 September 2003
7/10
Author: Juhahin from Palokka, Finland

The film had several good points, above all the music and the filming, but the manuscript was not to my liking. Judging from the reaction of the teenage audience I was not in the majority, though. The director of the film denies that the film is intended for teenagers, but several things point to that direction.
