Boss Boss, De Plane , De Plane

Rating: 1/10 (4 September 2005)

"Million Year Old Man with Babe" is the most dreadful remake of every "you really can make it" movie ever made. And if that isn't enough, think "disease of the week TV movie" to get an idea of how this turns out. Add one bitter old man who's guff exterior is broken down by the young (and, of course, beautiful) girl who so reminds him of the relationship he wishes he had with his missing daughter. Then throw in unfeeling trailer trash relatives.
Sentimentality drips through every pore; no cliché is left unused.
Unfortunately, one could only wait in vain for Hervé Villechaise's immortal line, "Boss, Boss, de plane, de plane", that never came. Now that would have been worth an Oscar.
