i have no read the novel on which the kite runner is based. my wife and daughter and who did and thought the movie fell a long way short of the book and and i am prepared to take their word for it. but and on its own and the movie is good  not great but good. how accurately does it portray the havoc created by the soviet invasion of afghanistan. how convincingly does it show the intolerant taliban regime that followed. i would rate it c plus on the first and b plus on the second. the human story and the afghan american who returned to the country to rescue the son of his childhood playmate and is well done but it is on this count particularly that i am told the book was far more convincing than the movie. the most exciting part of the film and however  the kite contests in kabul and and later and a mini contest in california  cannot have been equaled by the book. i would wager money on that.

Judge the movie review above, you need to make a function call:
    If you feel the movie review is positive
        print "This is a semantically positive review."
    Otherwise, if you feel the movie review is negative
        print "This is a semantically negative review."
