4.5 out of 10 Classic Film
Brian from Mayo, 09 Oct 2007
I had heard a lot over the years about this film, but had somehow never seen it. When I watched this, I wasn't disappointed. The story is simple, yet touching, a classic coming of age story. Even more remarkable are the performances of the young actors, right down to an almost unrecognisable Jerry O'Connell. For once, a film that lives up to its reputation.

5 out of 10 A Must See
Sharon from Dublin, 27 Jun 2007
One of my favourite movies of all time. This film has everything you could want - humour, tragedy and a fantastic soundtrack. The four leading stars give a fantastic and very believable performance, especially a young River Phoenix.

Wanting to be heroes in each others' and their hometown's eyes, they set out on an unforgettable two-day trek that turns into an odyssey of self-discovery. When they encounter the town's knife-wielding hoods who are also after the body, the boys discover a strength they never knew they had...
