The film was not what I expected it to be. A little like, "La guerre des tuques", but not as good. Children don't think like that! It was obvious that some of what they say is purely lines created for them, because children of these ages don't think about war in the world all the time, they don't think about when they arw going to be older, and that they would not be like there parents! It's a lesson of moral.. They are 10 years old !!! But the fort was nice, and some of the actors are so cute that they do the film by themselves! Kids are going to like the movie, but older ones... maybe not.

In the beautiful outdoors of Canada, kids are struggling with the prejudices and heritage of their parents, and occasionally with some week lines from the writer, who is on the other hand a superb director.

The kids play wonderfully, for the most part. The morals are there (juiced out completely without becoming too obtrusive), together with friendship and betrayal, war and peace, the first kiss, nature and humanity; all combined make this a most agreeable movie.

For the kids, and maybe others...
