Windcatcher

I really can't understand how this movie doesn't rate 10/10. Sure, it is sometimes a little far-fetched but it doesn't claim to be a true account!

It's a ripper of a family story - great for kids and adults to watch together. Funny, with the mandatory moral lesson wrapped in a whole lot of love. A bit of a tear jerker which caught me off-guard, in the best possible way.

It would be really hard not to fall in love with the lead characters in this movie. All the characters were well-developed and most of the acting was excellent.

Great cinematography - and beautiful Australian scenery.

Well done to all involved in this production.

Fun and lovable story of a young aborigine boy named "Percy boy" who loves to run. As with most public schools around the globe there is a bully problem that no one ever deals with, which is sad in itself, far too many kids have to deal with these idiots with no relief whatsoever. Percy Boy however has an edge, he's very fast runner and decides to take them on in several contests hoping all the while to earn enough money for a special pair of athletic shoes. Some intense scenes during a fire and bad memories don't help much, and then he has the gift of seeing ghosts and assisting them to the light, which he is beginning to be good at. Nothing questionable, no violence, nudity or bad language at all. Great for whole family. Very well written and acted feel good movie. Enjoy.

Was one of the very few childrens movies I watched with the family over easter because you know when you can't watch bluey? Put this on and we were laughing, crying and cheering on the characters in the span of a few minutes, and it was such an inspiring story that I feel the movie could've been a little bit longer and told just a little bit more. How good was it seeing Pia Miranda and Jess Mauboy in something different? The two were funny, and well meaning. Percy? Was such a little larrikin taking his lessons learned to everywhere he went. Recommend watching this with family and friends, grab some popcorn and watch!

This was so much fun. We quite literally laughed, cried & cheered throughout. A beautiful little slice of Aussie life captured in a heartfelt and FUNNY story. Daisy is a star and I want her to be my friend. Unlike some family films, the grown ups in our house enjoyed it as much (if not more) than the kids. Even our teen that has a tiny attention span was sucked in. It really pulled on the heart strings without being soppy or sentimental. So much fun. I thought Jess Mauboy was just gorgeous and the child actors, CHARMING! Already hoping for a wind catcher II. Will watch this one again and again!

Actually really enjoyed watching this over Easter, as I had seen the ads for it on TV and thought it was just going to be about a kid who loves running and that was it.

It was so much more and it was a great movie, not to long not to short, the characters clicked really well and the story was actually pretty decent.

We need more storytelling like this with humour and heart because that is what we all need in our lives adults and kids alike.

Was great to see Jess Mauboy again and she put in a great performance and so did the actors who played the teachers, the dude who played Grandpa was another highlight.

Great to watch with the family they will love this!
