    The movie was originally BANNED for being TO VIOLENT in the USA. At the time there were more movies with more death scenes than this movie. It actually highlighted DOMESTIC VIOLENCE and alot of people cried cos it was true in THAT ERA. The writer ALAN DUFF is my relative, and the book was based LOOSELY on his family upbringing, as a teen, in the '70s.

      Never be embarrassed. This movie started a conversation that was needed. It's a conversation we are still having. I was a European Kiwi living in a low social economic area. My friends were usually raised by their mums because dad was inside. The colour red became the most popular colour to wear. I had a mate come stay at my place till the AOS were finished at his house. It is things like this move, the bravery of Hinewhei Mohai to sing the real national anthem and the continuing growth and inclusion of a Kiwis to realise that the Kiwi culture is best served by embracing what is good about Moari culture and that culture is something to be respected and shared. It is who you are, it is who you chose to become. Sometimes we set the bar to high. It isn't about seeking pride from other people, when all you need is to give yourself pride in your self.

    Once Were Warriors, made about 17 years ago. My brother in law was in the movie. It was a movie that opened the doorway to start the talk of what was kept as the secret in families that was going through this. We as Maori, are Warriors. Proud people that through colonization adapted to a world of alcohol. Loss of identity. Devaluing what was strong in our hearts which is Wairua, aroha, Whanau, Tupuna. Not all, but through being westernized, sadly this became a norm for our lower income society whanau/family. This movie became the change for our people. The korero started, even our males that abused, they have support now to get help to find tools that work instead of fists. My suggestion is, watch the full movie. It is a reality in alot of our peoples lives. But seeing our people move from that era to ensure we stand proud as the Warriors we once were.

    Jake is played by Temuera Morrison. Same thing, been in a few American made movies. He plays a couple of characters in the star wars franchise. He is Boba Fett in 'the Mandalorian', Jango Fett in 'star wars: attack of the clones' and plays the father of an aqua man, Thomas curry.

    Sadly, Rena Owen (aka Beth Heke) did not receive an award for her stella performance.
    Left many New Zealand audiences in tears and haunted from the reality of poverty in New Zealand, alcoholism and domestic violence.

    I hope you ended up watching this film. Important to appreciate the colonial background to which Jake and Beth’s whanau (family) is depicted. Consider for a moment a fallen house analogy. That their whanau resides in state housing, the same state whose colonial history is replete with having eroded the cultural foundations and pillars of a once proud warrior people, of course Jake and Beth would be in state housing as the cultural roof of what could have been their whare (house) no longer has any structure on which to stand. Their broken state home is a metaphor for Te Ao Maori (Maori worldview) utterly undermined. It acts as a poignant reminder for New Zealanders of the subjugation of an indigenous people, the consequences of which reach into this day. It pays to be transformed by this knowledge, lest one fails to see the truth and reckon “what a bunch of lazy, good-for-nothing buggers” when confronted by people whose at times destructive actions are contoured by intergenerational deprivation and suffering. The cyclical occurrences of violence, drunkenness, gang involvement, and antagonism to government authority is better understood in the shadow of the fallen house of Te Ao Maori. It is against all this that Beth shines all the brighter as she becomes mana wahine (woman of power/authority) and makes steps to recover for her family the mana of her people (supernatural force and prestige that pervades all people, things and places).

    This movie is my top 3 best movies ever. Any father wud do exactly wat Jake did to Bully, The close up on his face & the slo tune just makes that scene much more intense. Your reactions at the end scene, U guys really don't do violence, cos me , i was lovin it, cos dirty uncle bully deserved it. Gr8 movie.❤❤❤❤

    The Movie "Once were Warriors" is followed by "What becomes of the Broken Hearted" One actor in this may not have been in the first Movie, but was in the book. ps Watch it in Surround Stereo. It brings it more to life*

    It was one of the most powerful movies ever made in the 90s .
    The follow-up movie ,what became of the broken hearted, was good too . But I didn't have the same emotional impact as this one ,and it wasn't a brutal either

    grace the daughter in the movie is my 1st cuzn the 13 yr old that killed her self because being abused by her dads mate on the movie but to be honest that was life back then it is and still now the same. but not as bad, the movie was graphic but to many maori people it was life . narrcistic agro men show love from a punch to the face it how it was

    Beth was of royal blood, Jake was from a line of slaves .The tattoo on sons face shows he recognized his mothers side ( left ) but not his fathers . This movie was about drug abuse and domestic violence as seen in every country on the planet . It is not about the beautiful Maori culture .

    Uncle bully nailed the Hispanic gangster “Smiley” in training day…..no one even thought he was Māori not even us Māori lol….he’s that good!! 🔥💯❤️🔥💯❤️
    Same thing could be said had he been Hispanic playing Uncle Bully……to nail the mannerisms and accents is a gift in itself and he definitely delivers…

    The messages in this movie transcend being maori its a global message of in your face domestic poverty impacts, .. Domestic violence, Rape, youth suicide, Drug use and Alcoholism.

    My guess is that you didn’t watch the whole movie to understand this scene, in the book that the mother read first than the father.
    It was some sort of diary or journal, telling that this guy has rape drunken. Their daughter one night, which lead to her death later on in the movie.

    this movie is great and sad and really touch on a lot of domestic and abusive and so much struggle of a family and the growth of them and is very raw on how real life is and how evil it can be but there is something more stronger then hate and evil and that is a mothers love it can over power anything
