Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Power of One DVD
I had read the book "The Power of One" again and thought the original opinion about it was right on. It is a great book. I learned there was a movie called "the power of one" and sought it out. What a dissappointment. The only thing that resembled the book was the title. I could not even finish the movie it was so bad and distorted.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a beautiful african masterpiece
This movie is quite possibly one of the best representations of the struggles that existed in South Africa in the 1900s. It covers a variety of genres: action, drama, romance, ...the list continues. The character of P.K. is inspiring and as a child, evokes the perfect childlike innocence that we all know children possess. Although this movie is not completely "on-point" with the book, it still follows the main story line with a few extras thrown in here and there.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of the greatest books ever!
This book is an education in growing up all by itself. It is beautifully written, easy to read and magnificent in it's philosophy on life. From the very beginning it is a tale of survival that makes turning every page exciting. A must read for everyone.

PK undergoes egregious psychological and physical abuse at the hands of the oldest boy.

He returns home to confide in his Nanny following the death of his mother. She then calls on a Sangoma (Shaman) of ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Screenplay very bad adaption of book.
This has to be one of the worst adaptions of an excellent book ever made. The story has been turned into junk, i would have given it no stars at all if i could have, although i guess that the cast is worth the star.
