Why are people so tough on this film?
In terms of the 'who its based on'. People get so upset. It CLEARLY says in the closing credits that this is a FICTIONAL story. Its not based on anyone.
I will say this film is choppy, its all over the place. The ending is way too abrupt, given the plot. The acting is so-so by the adult actors, but was very good by the child actors.
I think its a story that should be told. There is real evil out there, and much of it wears an innocent face!

"Didn't he discover America?"
"Penfold, shush."
