Great Story! Ending left me hanging.

Rating: 8/10 (7 December 2005)

I saw the movie at a special screening. I loved it. It was a great story about a man who never let go of his dream. The only thing that I didn't like was the ending. The entire movie was building to this great event. But when the event finally came, it wasn't depicted as a anything super special. Maybe I'm the type of movie buff that likes heroic events to take place with "Feel Good Music", loud cheering, high fives, hugs and maybe even some tears of joy. I was kind of bummed when none of these took place. Burt achieved his goal and nothing happens. The next thing you know, he's back in New Zealand. I guess its not a big deal, but thats the only thing I didn't like. I would recommend that anyone see it. Its still a wonderful story.
