¡Something different!

Rating: 8/10 (4 April 2007)

This film is both original and enjoyable. Really I felt a lot of different emotions throughout the course of the movie, happiness, embarrassment, sadness, humor etc. There aren't too many films you enjoy with all these characteristics. The plot was wonderful, all the time you are eager for knowing what happen then if they will be able to arrive or not, the nice-rude grandpa, Richard and his nine steps and the cute Olive, all was fantastic. The dance scene is the best part of the movie, where you watch it with your hands on your face, you feel pity. Now I got why Arkin won the Oscar, his performance, in spite of short, was amazing, definitely he stuck out, although we know why Eddie Murphy lost the prize. Well, you will have a really great time if you see it.
