Son of Rambow (2007)

Posted on 23:59 by uthpa
Cautiously Recommended
UK/France/Germany
Feature Film

Writer/Director: Garth Jennings
Cinematographer: Jess Hall
Composer: Joby Talbot
Cast: Bill Milner, Will Poulter, Jessica Stevenson, Neil Dudgeon, Ed Westwick, Jules Sitruk

Jennings’s follow up to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005) never quite lives up to its fantastic sounding premise - two young boys, lonely outsiders, tentatively form a friendship whilst making their own version of First Blood (1982) with a camcorder and plenty of enthusiasm - but the largely unsentimental film is never less than entertaining and manages to hold one’s attention throughout with some accomplished juvenile performances and a few nice visual flourishes.
