I just now caught wind of this movie.

I'm a bit torn, it doesn't portray autistics as helpless, but I don't know if I like this either.

see for yourself:

oh SNAP!! !

I forgot about that. It's a crap shoot as to if you will get it there or not. At least get an open region DVD player.

I hope you can get it in the UK, and us here in the US. I want to see the movie.

It actually came out in 2008, according to IMDB. Don't know whether it's on DVD yet, though.

I don't have a link to download it, here's the wiki page though:

Sorry!

Oh and here's the myspace page:

the DVD boxart shows a UK movie rating so it should be gettable in England!

It's an action movie of martial arts badass goodness. If it offends you, you should probably lighten up.
