Son of a Gun movie review: wholesale cinematic heist
Misogynistic, predictable, crammed with tonal shifts, and devoid of likable characters. Another young filmmaker has taken all the wrong cues from Hollywood.

This painfully unfunny spoof of teddibly British nonsense couldn’t be less amusing if it were actually calculated to be totally laugh-free.

Keeps trying to fly off into potentially fascinating directions and then getting yanked back into a mushy mediocrity…
I guess we’re in for a slew of “reimagined fairy tale” flicks.

It’s a disaster movie, but not as we know it…
Well, this looks absolutely heartbreaking.
Why alter away what makes it different from what you’d see at home? Isn’t part of the charm of seeing a foreign film the taste of another culture you get from it?
See! This is how you do romantic comedy!
Can salmon fishing save the world? Can salmon fishing bring diverse cultures together?

It’s still a not very good movie. But… it’s still Star Wars.
