It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

I love potatoes. My name is Sasha Braus. Nobody can stop potato girl and her potatoes. I mean, it's potatoes. Who doesn't love potatoes? They are delicious. I give them shelter in my stomach. I found one on the ground once. I couldn't let it go to waste, so I picked it up and ate it at work. My boss got mad at me, but I gave him half. He made me run though. Then I got tired and a nice girl gave me a snack. I thought she was my savior. Now, I still eat potatoes, even though the Titans are attacking. My friend Mikasa Ackerman wouldn't share her food with me. I got very upset. I could not imagine a life without potatoes! Anyways, potatoes for life!

I'd been wanting to watch this movie for a while seeing as this guy has become a bit of a celebrity in South Africa, but i did not expect it to have such a profound effect on me. My teenage daughter had tried to put me off watching it, and she later explained to me that she had been traumatized by the one scene, when she had watched it, and also found it "too Christian". I didn't find it dogmatic, but rather a personal story of this man's journey, and the power of listening to your inner voice. It is really an inspirational story for anyone, across racial or religious barriers, and offers a fascinating look into the life of farmers in South Africa. I couldn't fault the film, it made me proud to live in South Africa, and privileged to witness such an amazing true story.

I want to strongly recommend this movie.Yesterday, I took this movie over to view with my ailing mother, who recently accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior. I believe the Lord led me to find this movie, as I never even heard of it before, but was captured by the title. We were both deeply touched and moved, at times with tears, while watching this movie. It has a strong evangelical, Christ centered messaged based on the true story of Angus Buchan, a farmer who started Shalom Ministries in South Africa.It shows how God can use anyone who is surrendered to Him! You can find more information on Angus and his ministry online.Terilyn

I was fortunate to get this film as a present on DVD. And wow, what a movie. Frank Rautenbagh's acting as Angus is wonderful, while Jean Wilhelm's performance is a little weak, however, this could be due to the writing of the character in the script - perhaps not having enough room for development. Sean Cameron Michael as Fergus, Angus' brother, who's little son is killed in a tragic accident, is just brilliant. His performance is one of the most moving portrayals I've seen on the big screen in a long time. An excellent move on behalf of the producers to get him on board on the project. Van den Bergh's cinematography is breath taking - awesome locations, while the music too fits perfectly. There could have perhaps been more character development in the relationship between Angus and Fergus, however, I suppose due to time constraints this may have been cut. Well worth a watch.
