• A Man Called Otto

    It is stretching it to call it a comedy at best it was amusing.

    I really enjoyed this movie and Tom was on good form and played the irascible titular lead. The movie unfolded slowly and it all came together in the last 20 minutes.

    We had some really good performances all round and I think I have seen this same plot a number of times.

    It was not perfect, it was a few scenes too long, we had several cultural stereotypes that grated but we slowly warmed to it, I suppose! Some elements were overly contrived to manipulate the viewer, however these a minor criticisms of a largely highly entertaining movie.

    I giving this a strong 7 outta 10, meaning it's well worth a watch.
