[SonicGeneration]

I just saw this movie on TV and the ending is very touching. :)

[AryaSravaka]

@SonicGeneration BBC2 :). Awesome film... actually made me cry... 1000000000000 times better than hollywoodbullet crime films... awesome ..its on iplayer too

[emilydominko]

seen it on foxtel; the storyline is good.

[farhan2022]

film bagus.. tapi sekarang Keisha Castle Hughes nya kemana??

[Teardropifycation]

@seanpower97 i doubt that. Obviously its good acting if the girl who played Pai, Keisha Castle-Hughes was nominated for an Academy Award -.-

[pingasingable]

what nationality are they?

[xFUZZYI]

@pingasingable New Zealand

[ryuson2000]

[bazzamataz72]

i really love this movie New Zealand do much better movies than Australia they put so much effort into it and so much passion

[emilydominko]

Forget the People's Choice Award; Whale Rider should've been nominated for an Oscar, Golden Globe or a Screen Actors Guild Award!!!!!

[emilydominko]

Keisha Castle-Hughes is a brilliant actress!!!!!

[LaddergoatSupreme]

One of the most touching movier ever.

[LiveOutLoudisLove]

[DJPhilo101]

Gayest Movie ever, had to study it in school... HATE IT!

[drxwnedxwxrld]

Academy Award for Best Actress nom in 2003!

[SeraphinaZoe]

Isn't it very dangerous to ride a whale?

When I was in school I loved the book "Island of the Blue Dolphins" from Scott O'Dell ( it's also about a courageous little indian girl ). It's a pity that I never saw the movie.

Maybe I should try this book ( and the movie ). ^^

[psp4445]

I HATE this fucking movie!

[computerjantje]

What a great movie with amazing acting by Keisha Castle Hughes. Thankyou Niki Caro.

[glowee123]

[DanaJJohnson]

I just watched this film in English last week. I cried at least ten times, and the chanting still sends shivers down my spine. If you haven't seen this movie, you should.

[megustaverlas]

I fell asleep towards the climax XD

[lellbelle]

I love this movie, it's great, great acting and good storyline, has a deeper meaning than a lotaround today, it's cultural but anyone can appreciate it.

[mskiara18]

I love this movie a lot. I felt like crying for the girl because of what she was going through. I didn't like the grandpa >:3 too many guys like act like that in this world. Great leaders exist in both genders.

[kstarBAM]

I fuckin love this movie, one of my favorites.

[nirvanaloli]

I dream of whales.and major events on human history.the whales ask me to go to New Zealand,because they need me there.And there is where i'm going...

[Teeshaweesh]

Yes this was THE movie of our country when it came out, and despite the fact that i love the trailer, i do think they really sold it. I know every one of us kiwi's know all about the movie, but i just wish it got more credit internationally so the world could see a different side of our country. Loved the movie!!! Not enough recognition though.

[Teeshaweesh]

@Teeshaweesh

I mean i don't think they really sold it...lol*****

[misspinay181]

this movie is really inspirational...we're actually learning about oceania and the pacific islands and geography and our teacher is letting us watch this. right now we're only at the part where she's sneaking into the boy's classes to learn too. i really love this movie so far and can't wait to finish it!

[SofaMan1000]

@misspinay181 She dies.

[misspinay181]

@SofaMan1000 i finished the movie and i didn't see her die at all...at the end she became the new leader

[SofaMan1000]

@misspinay181 Have you heard of sarcasm?

[PotOgeECuzZinO]

oh dear, i've all ready seen this movie like. a gazillion tymes. butttt it just gave me the shivers wen ii seen this. (0__o) OMG! ii wanna watch it again.

[ocasioa99]

Excelent movie. Should included in every school curriculum. Its about culture changing and how some cultures still have strong differences between men and women.

[TheSurlyVixen]

One of the best movies I've ever seen.

[vampiress892]

I had just watched this movie at school for our culture unit. I fell in love with it. It replaces my Disney, fasination, and I will always have a place for this movie in my heart

[MiaandKiwi]

This is a fantastic movie, I loved it:)

[iScreamlovr]

[cuntpunt2000]

i have never cried so much @ a movie

[Lizziebee09]

...and sometimes the leader you are searching for is a WOMAN!!!

[crazyboyfromjapan]

I'm a man but agree with you profoundly.  In fact so many good politicians around the world are women.

[scarface306]

@Lizziebee09

I know right?!

[carathebaker]

@Lizziebee09 Amen Sista!

[littlemisskaos1]

[littlemisskaos1]

[filmcriticrating]

Amazing production with some creative special effects without going over the top. Great character study and good insights into the struggles of Native peoples in this modern age.

[switch4evr1]

im not afraid to die

[AlfieTobutt]

Such a sad movie, watched it a few times and didn't really understand, then I went to New Zealand and studied the Maori culture and totally understand it now.

[ethananimation]

Amazing film, and will be one of the best movies for decades to come. Too bad it wasn't given the recognition it deserves. :/

[GravyBaybee]

I love Nani Flowers she reminds me of all the elder Maori women I know

[funnygirl123457]

i read the book! its amazing!!!1 and now i cant wait to watch the movie!

[gugamix76]

[tEcHnObAbE94]

i love how this movie is not one of those ultrafake hollywood tearjerkers...i cried my eyes out (and i nevr cry over movies:/)

[UCSDEngineerDoctor]

"...on the back of a whale." - What a sweet and tender voice. This movie broke my heart.

[TykTano]

One of the most beautyful movies I've ever seen. It's a masterpiece

[Tanzob]

@TykTano this was the most shitty movie i've ever seen.

[Jiyukan]

@Tanzob You Sir, are just an idiot. Why did you not switch to another channel after 2 mins and spare us with your helpless opinion?

[Tanzob]

@Jiyukan i'm pretty sure you wanted to know. you told me to write my opinion on here.

[zamumbel]

best film ever . my alltime favorite

[tickingclocks48]

At the image awards, this movie lost "best film" to The Fighting Temptations. It was fucking retarded.

[themightycelestial]

I like how the main character in this movie triumphs over the ages old belief that in order to be a chieftain, one must be a male. And in the process, she makes both that old tradition and a whale her bitchez.

Yay for Girl Power!
