• Really bad
  Everyone watches this because they want to see Daniel Radcliffe in something other than Harry Potter. Ok. Fine. And he doesn't do a bad job. The only thing is, he's not in the main role, but he's in many more scenes than the main character. He's only really been casted as Maps so that they can have his name on the front of the box. They've added in whole scenes just to make up a relationship between Maps (Radcliffe) and some random girl who didn't figure in the book. WHY?!?
  It's an ok film. But not if... more info

• What you should really think of a film like this
  The mistake most people will make when they buy a film such as this is that they will judge it upon Daniel Radcliffe's performance. In doing so, the other features of the film will quite easily get glossed over.

• Disappointing
  I was hoping this film would prove that Daniel Radcliffe could be more than Harry Potter, but neither the role nor his performance were strong enough to do that. There was some poignancy in the film, but it was not a good enough story to hold my attention throughout - indeed, I found myself wondering when the point of the plot would be reached. A shame, as there was potential to develop the story to the point where it would become interesting. There were too many weak characters and very few strong ones.

• excellent!!
  This is a really great movie, that leaves you feeling warm. The story of 4 boys sharing a birthday in december, hence the name december boys!
  The film shows the trials of their friendship, and mostly the relationship between of Maps (Daniel Radcliffe) and his crush Lucy.
  This film is well worth a watch, especially for Daniel Radcliffe fans.
