Be Kind Rewind

Year: 2008

Grade: B

Country: USA

Director: Gondry

Review

a good little romp. gondry is very imaginative and that is evident here as always. a lot of the humor derives from the youtube style renditions of popular films that mos def and jack black produce. in this way the film has a very amateurish (in a good way) feel to it. both leads do a good job with the film and have a good chemistry. overall the film feels like a few friends got together and had a good time making a film about something they wish they could do (make short films based upon real films, for money). they tacked on the stock storyline about needing to get a bunch of money quickly or face eviction (something which isn’t ever really finalized).
