Capone wants to be a SON OF RAMBOW, too!

What Capone really wants is a time machine by Franklin T Marmoset	May 10th, 2008 08:43:53 AM
Come on, buddy, we're interested in Indiana Jones these days. Indiana Jones!

My knee-jerk sarcasm got the best of me.
really good movie by Jarek	May 10th, 2008 10:07:56 AM

I can't wait to see it.
Yeah right - pile of shit by Miguel De Barioz	May 10th, 2008 02:05:45 PM
I just get to see this movie on DVD. kind of shit they shouldn't be allowed to make. I see why they changed the title: Stallone would sue their skinny bristish asses man! I like sequels but if you are going to do a sequel they should at least make it a bit like the previous films. Like I said: shit man!
This movie represents all that is good in film and cinema. by Galactic	May 10th, 2008 03:37:38 PM
That is all. Nice review.
What Galactic meant is by Bilblow	May 10th, 2008 05:27:22 PM
This movie represents all that you can make when you are obsessed with Wes Anderson films. Its a cute a film, and that is what ultimately saves it, but Jesus, come on....take Wes's dick out of your mouth.
The MPAA must be rolling in it's grave. by bioforge	May 10th, 2008 11:40:56 PM
Looking forward to this flick a lot.
Personally... by Sledge Hammer	May 11th, 2008 05:07:42 AM
...I thought it was an overly saccharin piece of disney-esque paint by numbers mediocrity. Just because it namechecks a great film, that doesn't make it a great film itself, although the filmmakers seemed to think that was the case. I'd say that this one is only going to truly impress those people who hailed Be Kind, Rewind was cinematic brilliance. This isn't a great film, hell, I wouldn't even say it's a good film. No, it's a "nice" film. A safe film. A film that relies heavily on the baggage the viewer brings with them in order to have any real impact whatsoever. If you go see it I doubt many will hate it, the kids are okay and it's way too inoffensive to really irritate, instead it'll simply be one of those films that most people instantly forget as soon as it's over. That was my take anyway.

... like a zombie that keeps coming after you no matter how many times you try to kill it.
I totally loved this movie... by Crimson King	May 11th, 2008 12:00:57 PM
And not because it "namechecks" First Blood. I totally agree with Capone on this one. Sure, it's a sweet little story about two friends and their shared passion for making their movie, but it's really funny and it really captures that love of films and filmmaking that, presumably, we all share. I don't think anyone's hailing this as the ultimate cinematic masterpiece or anything like that. It's just a very fun, very enjoyable feel-good movie that oozes 80's nostalgia and a love for movies.
Yep... you are really fucking dead inside. by LordEnigma	May 11th, 2008 12:40:39 PM
Fuck you, Capone. Mr. Enemy of the GEEK State.
Am I imagining it or... by Sithtastic	May 11th, 2008 10:38:41 PM
Does no one like the idea this shows that the creative process can really be like a bunch of kids competing for club status? That doesn't strike me as overly sentimental, but given the relationship between the characters I suppose this might be lost on far too many viewers.
Go see Son Of Rambow. by jonny_rico	May 12th, 2008 08:19:32 AM
I've never written in here before, but I came across the Son Of Rambo thread & felt compelled to write in with my support of the film which I adored when I saw it a month or so ago. It did remind me of the sense of innocence and adventure that you get with a Stand By Me kind of film, and I did feel pangs of nostalgia throughout of getting together with my friends after watching Evil Dead 2 for the first time & feeling invincible infront of the video camera - so maybe I'm the prime audience, but I thought it was fantastic & would urge anyone in need of checking out a different sort of feel good film. My girlfriend also loved this & she didn't grow up around film cameras & fake squibs.. J.R.
