An excellent "hunt" thriller where the fugitive is a boy. Really gripping to the very end. I thought it was very convincing with regard to the psychology of the boy. Though the presentation and motivations of the adults, particularly the policemen seemed very simplistic. Is North American society really that crass and simplistic? Do people really fear for their jobs so much? I hope the police force isn't really as crap as it is portrayed. I have a horrible feeling it might be. I'm very glad that we don't have armed "bobbies" on the beat here in the UK. I'd also like to think their detective work is considerably better.
