Review of: Be Kind Rewind

3/5 (minimum 1)

by tom on 28 Mar 2008

A decent slab of unchallenging entertainment. Good for lots of laughs; if there's a deep message (other than the cheesey but true community vs the-powers-that-be thread) then I missed it, but it was fun nonetheless.

The real gems for me came from the creativity that had gone into filming scenes or elements from blockbuster films on a zero budget. The Ghostbusters scenes in particular are great, especially their Slimer mock-up.

For the chain-link fence camouflage suit alone this film deserves an award. It won't won't change your life, but it will keep you amused for an hour or so.
