DVD Reviews of Goodnight Mister Tom
DVD Review: Great story, poor acting
Summary: 3 Stars
I am a HUGE fan of the book, Good Night Mr. Tom. However, the movie just does not live up to the book. The acting by both Will and Mr. Tom is poor, especially by Will. The story itself is so good that given good acting, this could have been a great movie. However, the poor acting really put a damper on things. In addition, the movie omitted huge parts of the book. Will's relationship with his friends are not really developed, for example. In fact, basically all the story points are underdeveloped in the movie compared to the book. As a result, the emotion just isn't there.
However, none of these drawbacks can take away the fact that this is just a wonderful, heart-warming story. If you were a fan of the book, you'll probably enjoy it. I'd read the book first, though. The movie, as is so often the case, just isn't as good.
