brutal to watch, boring, unamazed with stories

Rating: Null/10 (2 May 2004)

Man, I found this movie very brutal to watch. Some of the scenes dragged on forever and I was more annoyed with the old guy's stories than his son was. I don't know if I would have kept watching it if I was watching alone. I wasn't amazed by anything that happened. I suppose if I had experienced what Edward Bloom experienced I would be amazed, but this movie fails to amaze me with its stories. I actually did turn it off before it was over, when his son was doing the monologue at the end and fish jumped out of the water I couldn't stand it anymore I frantically searched for the remote controller and pressed the stop button like ten times. It was so goody good teeheee twoshoes I couldn't stand it. I give it a 3/10.
