Rating: C+ Commentary: Too much headspace creates an distancing effect, leaving the audience with too little imagination to fill in the blank. The purpose of such a device is poorly used on this type of film. |
Rating: B+ Commentary: This looks like a genuine sleeper possibility. It looks sweet, charming and fun. |
