I’m new here so don’t cut me too badly for this. I saw dreamer (Dakota Fanning, Kurt Russel) today at the grand opening of a new theater here in my town. I really was hoping to watch something else instead but I figured I would settle for dreamer since it fit our schedule more reasonably. Yes, our schedule, I had my pre-teen son there and wife. I figured if nothing else at least I wouldn’t have to worry about the old sex-drugs-violence rap with junior. I must say that this was a great movie! It’s been a while since I went to a movie and saw people actually standing up and cheering for the good guys at two different points in the show. I also felt compelled during these parts. Yes, it’s schmaltzy and the ending is predictable, but the acting is very good and the movie just seemed to suck me in, what a great underdog story. The only thing I object to is Elizabeth Shue’s part as the mother. I guess there had to be a mother in the story just for balance and to help explain some of the back-story but other than that she could’ve been written out or maybe she could’ve been given more function in the active story line. I never saw a commercial for this film nor did I even see a movie poster but if you see them it probably looks pretty lame, I can imagine. if you run out of things to do, or if you are looking for a date/family movie this is the best I have seen in a while, it might surprise you. Now let the ripping begin! (I hope not.)
