I love this movie so much
Sorry, this movie sucks
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
A younger brother is smitten with the new girl next door but she is closer in age to his older brother and she doesn't take his interest seriously. This movie was billed as a family movie but unfortunately instead of being `for 11 years olds' it seems to have been written by 11 year olds. The dialogue is totally unrealistic and the situations are laughable. For example, when the neighborhood bookie wants to collect from one of his customer that owes him money he has to get tough with him. He does that by pouring raw dough on the guy. Of course the guy caves and admits that he has the money in his shoe.
I just saw a screening of this movie and loved it.....It was nice to finally see a REAL family movie. Funny and cute..... The boys in the movie seemed real and the object of their affection had a beautiful voice. I give this one a 4........
