I was randomly browsing through TV channels with my wife and we happened to tune in to "SF-kanalen" where this movie was playing. It seemed like an intriguing movie until i saw the caged fox being shot in the face without warning. It made me want to vomit and made me feel sick to my stomach for the rest of the day. It is a totally unnecessary, brutally violent act that should never have happened. It makes me outraged and extremely angry, and to have something so evil shoved in my face... When i found out it was a real scene and that the fox was actually killed for the sake of ART, it provoked even stronger disgust and both me and my wife vow NEVER to see another SF movie. I am very surprised and shocked the Swedish film company allow the making and broadcasting of animal cruelty, and i'm equally surprised to see it being spread even further by Canal Digital in Norway. This is outrageous and it should be banned! The whole movie loses meaning and the plot falls apart. The movie is supposedly against fox hunting and killing, how they can kill an innocent little fox in front of the camera is beyond my comprehension. F-, 0 out of 10 stars. DO NOT WATCH

It was coincidence in the first place, coming across this film on my search for Scandinavian films. The brief outlining of the film's contents on an advertisement for the DVD made me curious, and I bought it without knowing more than those few sentences and the DVD cover, showing a boy holding a fox in his arms.I didn't regret it for one minute. Although the film is by no means the romantic nature adventure the advertisement suggests, it is both beautiful and disturbing at the same time. In the beginning the story might remind some of us adults of our real or dreamed adventures of our youth. Surviving in and with nature, saving trapped animals, serving a great spirit of nature which appears in the character of an old Indian. But civilization is never far away, and conflicts are bound to come up. And this is where the story gradually changes from romantic to disturbing. Kim, a thirteen year-old boy who opens the traps to free helpless animals, who first inflicts relatively harmless damage to punish poachers and drive them away, has to realize that the extension of civilization cannot be stopped by mere idealism. There are other steps that have to be taken to prevent the forest from being rooted out, the home of countless animals from being destroyed. Idealism becomes sheer desperation, and our sympathy with that boy and his desperate fight on behalf of wild life goes along with the knowledge that probably there will not be a happy end.Which leaves us deep in thought about the right or wrong of civilization subjecting and exploiting nature.Both children and adults can profit from the film and its message. It both encourages and warns children and young people who care for nature and wild life. And it shows clearly to adults that human extension will meet its limits at some point, if there is someone who helps nature to claim and, if necessary, reclaim its place in our lives.

Stefan Jarl is one of Sweden's most interesting personalities and "Jag är din krigare" is as special as he is. What starts out as something of a naturemovie you'd recommend to kids, develops into a very scary and painful story about fanaticism and the evil done by man's hand. Jarl is as pissed off as he always is and doesn't portrait the grown-ups of this movie in a very sympathetic way. Kim is the hero, but even he towards the end starts to lose control. What kind of 14-yearold is so dedicated to saving the nature that he will stop at nothing? Not even killing other humans. Basically; don't judge this movie too quickly. In the beginning it's mostly natureromance and a cute story about a boy, his fox and his search for peace among the animals of the forest. But then the movie changes, you can't say when, and you start getting chills down your spine because you realize things will go wrong. People will try to hurt Kim and he will probably try to hurt them back. Robin Milldoff is superb in the role of Kim, and this is really his movie. His stern face, that reflects Kim's determination, tells even more about him than what he says. Jarl is frustrated, almost desperate, at the thought of what man is doing to Mother Nature. He wants you to open your eyes to what is going on around you. If this young boy can do it; why can't you?
