Review of Son of Rambow (2007) by Mark M — 01 Nov 2009

Really not what it should have been. Not that funny and just overall kind of annoying. The 2 main kid actors were actually good, it's just the story was uninteresting to me. The premise has potential it was just ruined by predictability and overblown drama.

And seriously another movie with religious fanatics. When was the last movie you saw that actually showed a religious person who wasn't an absolute nutcase? I can't think of any in the last 10 years. One might say that it was an important part of the story, but I say it's just lazy writing. If you can't think of anything just use the weird religious person who ruins everything because of their blind belief in God, that will work.
