Additional InformationONCE WERE WARRIORS is a powerful film that focuses on a New Zealand family descended from Maori tribesmen. For Jake (Temuera Morrison) and Beth Heke (Rena Owen), life in their suburban ghetto is going from bad to worse. Jake's just lost his job, their delinquent teenage son Boogie has to appear in court, and they can't make ends meet with five growing kids. Late that night, they host another one of Jake's raunchy drinking parties while the children lie awake in their bedroom. When their oldest son asks for money, which Beth discovers Jake has gambled away, it ignites a vicious argument that Jake solves by giving Beth one of his brutal beatings. The tide of violence continues to ebb and flow in the Heke household until a terrible tragedy makes them confront the dysfunctional state of their family.

    Was only 1st 5minutes, so got to enjoy the rest of the film

    The beginning of the dvd was scratched so it kept jumping or missing parts. The DVD is more the good its excellent but what I bought was poor. Still I only paid a few pounds didn't break the bank

    enjoyable

    Good film with good performances, portraying a grim and abusive family life style. Not a film if your looking for an up beat viewing experience as it ultimately is depressing, but strangely watchable.
