SON OF RAMBOW
UK, 2007, 96 MIN, Rated PG-13
DIRECTED BY GARTH JENNINGS
Written and directed by Garth Jennings (The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy), Son of Rambow takes us on a nostalgic journey back to 1982, where kids everywhere idolized one of the greatest action heroes ever to grace the screen -- Sylvester Stallone’s “Rambo.” Will is an imaginative little kid who is subdued greatly by the strict religious community he is growing up in. They all but succeed in sheltering him from any sort of outside media until the day he gets his hands on a bootleg copy of First Blood. The film absolutely mesmerizes the British 11-year-old, who then decides to make a movie of his own where he plays the son of Stallone’s chiseled character. What follows is a creatively mad-cap attempt at a no-budget action epic, where the characters take independent filmmaking to a whole new level. The breakout hit of the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, Jennings’s magical work is a hilariously fresh and visually inventive take on friendship, family, film heroes, and the death-defying adventures of growing up in the video age. Son of Rambow is an all-ages cinematic experience that is pure joy.
