Review of My First Mister (2001) by James J — 08 Aug 2009

My First Mister starts out so horribly, with troubled teen vibes being tossed like no one's business for the first 15 minutes, but it's nice seeing the characters change and (especially for the main character) mature so much throughout the film.

I would also argue that some characters change too rapidly and unexpectedly, such as R's son. The movie does get better as it goes along, but there are also some parts in the story that don't click, and the progression isn't enough to make this a standout film.
