DVD review

THE KITE RUNNER

A beautiful adaptation of the bestselling book

Friday June 6,2008

By Allan Hunter

SWEEPING adaptation of the Khaled Hosseini bestseller.

A San Francisco novelist is offered the chance to make amends for past failings and journeys back to the Afghanistan of his childhood.

Beautiful images and heartfelt performances compensate for the melodramatic storytelling.

OUR VERDICT: 4/5
Cert 12, Paramount Home Entertainment, DVD: rental and retail.
