well, i dunno...

Rating: Null/10 (22 August 1999)

A film that could have been.... I read many of the reviews here, and considering most gave this film a solid "thumbs up", I thought I'd check it out. I left the movie wondering where it went wrong. I could not pin-point what faults the movie held, but I was certain that script wasn't air-tight. The bulk of the film was drawn out and the dialogue got painfully slow and awkward at times. The intrigue of knowing the child's secret was the only real mystery of the movie, and that was revealed far too early, letting my interest and attention slide as the film progressed. In fact, the only factor that saves this movie from getting a toilet-worthy rating its clever and unexpected ending. Worth a 2 dollar admission, but not by much.
