My God. A good Canadian movie..., 6 February 2003
8/10
Author: rps-2 from Bracebridge Ont

Well, we had some help from the Scandanavians. Normally I avoid Canadian movies automatically. 90% of them are ghastly and pretentious. I made an exception here because we had visited Newfoundland last fall. I had been under the impression that it was a spoof of Random Passage. Not at all. It's a rollicking good adventure based on a true story. There is action, romance, rape and humour. Good stuff indeed!
