The Kite Runner is about two boys growing up together in Afghanistan. The boys are best friends and always hang out together. Hassan, son of a servant, is very loyal to his friend Amir, son of a wealthy man. One day, an incident occurs which will change their friendship drastically. Then, when war breaks out, the boys are being separated. Hassan stays with his father in Afghanistan, while Amir escapes with his dad to the USA. Will they ever meet again, or is Amir too caught up with his new life in America? | ||||||||

Before seeing this movie, I didn’t read the book. Some say the book is better than the movie, but most people agree on the fact that you should definitely watch this movie. The movie is really touching, because of the themes of friendship, family, human values and courage, which are subjects we can all relate to.
The actors of the young Amir and Hassan have played their roles very realistically, which made the entire movie even more touching. I couldn’t forget what Amir had done to Hassan and therefore I loved the ending in which Amir will have a second chance. Maybe we should give each other a second chance more often. | ||||||||

I’ve only read the book, but I plan to go see it. I think there hasn’t been a movie based on a book that’s actually better than the book itself. Still, it doesn’t mean it’s not enjoyable. Hopefully I get to see this soon, it will probably be on DVD though.
wonderful ……marv….the first half was so well woven, the book shld be really good cause the movie is fab…….wonder why it didn’t get any oscar or not much nominations.
