Trivia:
The parents of one of the boys in this film took a court action to prevent this film being released. The grounds for their action were that their son's naked buttocks could be seen in the film. the action was dismissed on the grounds that they (the buttocks) didn't appear on screen long enough to allow identification and also that the parents should have raised their objection before the scene was filmed. moreGoofs:
Continuity: When Fergus is walking towards Geronimo, the rabbit that he is holding switches hands between shots. moreFAQ

I was so board but curious as to what would happen to these boys next. It was like watching a train wreck I couldn't take my eyes off of it.
I did like the ending though. It was very cute. I'm still trying to decide whether i liked it or not. I think that maybe I did. The War of the Buttons is the type of movie you watch on on a rainy day just because there is nothing better to watch on TV, and you're too lazy to put a video in. The actors were talented for their age. If you like movies like The Black Stallion, then this movie is perfect for you.
