Wonderful well worth seeing

Rating: 8/10 (26 October 1999)

After waiting sometime seeing this movie and hearing all the hype, I saw this movie expecting to be disappointed. Well I wasn't.
Particular praise should go to the boy Haley. One of the best child performances on screen I have seen.
Bruce Willis plays Bruce Willis. Toni Collette does are wonderful job as the distraught mother although the part is fairly small. The scene in the car was very touching and believable emotions were portrayed.
This was a movie that relied on actors and a skillful director to make it work. It is good to get away from the action at all cost mentality that comes from Hollywood most of the time.
