I think that the movie is pretty good, because this entertains and too tells a short story that it is very impressive and strange if you don't put attention and for this reason mahy people don't understand the movie. My opinion about the movie don't only it is limited to the excellent argument but also what I understood about this. The movie show us like two group of children have a war and when a band lose a battles ( not the war), someone of the warriors lose his buttons. I wanna speak about the conviction that all boys put in the battles and the group's work. I believe that this conviction is the necessary for to make many things and these boy demonstrate us when they made their general quarter.In this movie we can also see the personal interest of some people like the child that he is fired of the group because he was sluggish and he wanted the buttons single for his, and like he destroyed the general quarter for his expulsion. Thus, I think that many people react when they are threatened although they don't nothing for nobody.In conclusion I like the movie I recommend and my vote is ten points.

Tag line:Why are we fighting? Nothing, Why else?I think the film is very interesting because it talks about the adolescents' life, which is a very complicated issue. The film shows how the adolescents can be very creative and risky in order to reach their goals and likes. Nevertheless these goals are not commonly related to their personal growing. These are often related to their need to figure between other ones. The stage of the film is very appropriate, because it develops on a power and honor's fight between two groups. The ambition is so much that they are involved easily in a war without end, but the most interesting part is when the groups' leaders don't realize why are they fighting. Which reveals the natural behavior of the adolescents (They do whatever, but don't measure the consequences). By Julián Valencia

One of the great things about being a kid is that you get away with a lot, growing up is an adventure, gangs, silly jokes etc. Okay, maybe you can't get away with it all.This picture is an adventure for 2 gangs who hate each other, one poor, one rich. Which is good and evil? Actually, the line is blurred, no one is evil, yet no one is good. It's not all adventure, there are dark moments. The film is a joy to watch, it brings back memories for us adults.The picture's location is stunning, Ireland is such a great place, the countryside and simplicity is brought to life by stunning direction and beautiful photography.A very good screenplay as well.The performances are stunning, you believed that the kids were fighting each other, you believed in their emotions, great stuff!A must watch! Remember to view in widescreen

This movie is amazing! It is a great family film. This scenic movie is also a breathtaking look at Ireland.The movie is about two groups of boys, both from different rival towns in Ireland, Ballydowse and Carrickdowse. The boys have battles, and to shame the enemy, they cut off all the buttons on their clothes. To get back at them, the boys from Ballydowse have a cunning plan to get back at the boys from Carrickdowse. They show up at the battle naked!You may either laugh or cry at this movie, but either way I am sure that you will love "The War of the Buttons."
