| 08.12.07 | Borrowed | Tony Randall plays all 7 faces thanks to Oscar-winning make-up by William Tuttle. This is a fun little movie for kids. For kids. It reminded me a lot of the 60s Disney films like Swiss Family Robinson and Babes in Toyland (except I didn't grow up on this one) in that, even though... i dunno, _fairly_ serious stuff is going on, it's all treated so lightly that it's more about the giggles of bad jokes and broad acting than anything else, which makes it perfect for kids. Plus it's kind of like an anti-Something Wicked This Way Comes, which is good because a movie like that needs something in the world to balance it out. Especially for kids. If I ever have kids and they see that movie, I'll be sure to show them this movie afterward so as not to ruin them on circuses for life. Plus, the scene where Pan dances around and plays flute is awesome. |
