Write your own review of the film and provide your own opinions in regards to the following…
I found the movie to be interesting as it was my first time watching it. Coming from a different country, the closest thing that I was exposed to violence was Power rangers. Overall I think that if I were to watch this while I was younger, I wouldn't have any problems with it as it's just a film about animals being in trouble (as per to my understanding if I was watching this while I was a young child)

Lastly, BBC and Netflix are remaking Watership Down as a child friendly four part mini-series with toned down violence. Do you think the story will work well in this format?
I feel like this remake will not work well in this format because it will have to be changed a lot form the original and not have such an impact on the audience.
