I was flicking through the channels one day when all of a sudden i stumbled upon an unknown Christopher Lee movie. Now, ive never been a fan of kids in movies but this is an exception. I was particularly moved by Ian Khoo's performance, which was at times subtle, comedic, and generally touched me in places i never knew i had. Unknown Khoo plays Hard, and steals the film from the other kids in the movie as well as as Lee, he really is one to watch out for and, though he hasnt got any other listings, im sure he is to have a promising career in the movie business. Dont let this great actor go to waste any longer, he made this movie.
