 Can we educate children to hate and kill? Absolutely.Mar 20, 2007
By Gerard D. Launay
A must see film about the horror of child terrorists and soldiers...not just for society at large but for these young adults as well. The film opens with a boy being sold by his Lebanese parents to become a child solider who is indoctrinated (as Number 3) to hate Jews and Gentiles. He becomes an excellent soldier for the cause of hate and is then flown to France to fulfill a mission to assassinate the President of France. A true story.
Filmed as a thriller - documentary style - the master terrorists have everything planned to the last detail but this...they failed to consider the impact of a friendship this young boy develops for a Parisian boy his own age. The most touching scene is the gentleness in which the French boy comforts the young soldier who is deeply troubled by nightmares in losing his parents and his innocence. And the most haunting line of the film, spoken by the child soldier - "what's it like being a boy."

 The Tags for this item are ridiculous and it is not a true story.Dec 14, 2009
By M. A. Toler
This is an intriguing and powerful film that never quite reaches it potential. Just when you start to really get wrapped up, the story stretches credulity to the breaking point. The films young stars are remarkable and that is consistent. There's a lot to be said, but I don't want to "review" the film. I want to comment on the tags.
My first reaction: Huh?!?!?! This is a film about a boy who whose family has been torn apart by war and Israeli aggression and because of that he is so desperate for revenge. Exploiting this, unscrupulous radicals take his name, give him a number and turn him into a child killer. He's sent to France to befriend another boy, learn his ways and get into an event in which the French President will be meeting with children in order to assassinate him. This is a film in which children are exploited and nearly murdered in cold blood. It's a political thriller. Not the greatest, but a political thriller nonetheless. So what is up with these tags? This is not a "gay" film. The kids pre-adolescent! I don't remember any nudity. Did the tags get mixed up with those from some kind of soft porn film perhaps?
Killer KidAlso, as far as I know, this is NOT a true story. It is adapted from a French novel by Claude Klotz and Marie Lescure. You can find it it you search on their names.

Great movie, great child actorsFeb 09, 2008
By M. Kline
"Mike K."
I loved the actors, especially the two children. The story is good, worth watching. I don't understand the tags, there's not so much as a shirtless scene anywhere in the movie, everyone is fully dressed for winter in Europe, no gay or romantic scenes, and I wouldn't call it coming-of-age they are really young. But overall well filmed & worth watching.

well done movieApr 07, 2008
By Gary B. Bowers
"SondraEC"
Boy from Lebanon gives a great in-site into what is happening in Iraq,Iran, Lebanon, Israel, and other countries. Much can be learned in protecting your child from such actions. These kids are deprived of any normal childhood for the sake of religious and political gain.This is a must see for parents.
