Viewing Notes

My 3rd film of Day 7, the 30th feature overall at FF2012 and one I chose over going to the Secret Screening of Cloud Atlas. Since CA will be a wide release I decided to go for something that was getting a lot of buzz at FF. And it’s easy to see why. I Declare War defies normal conventions to become a part real, part fantasy between groups of boys playing “war” in the woods. Mostly effective and entertaining. Would love to watch this with Ron’s kids.
