Title: man hoodwinked
Review: This is a very mixed up film, unsure of how it wants to portray its story. Just exactly what does it have to do with manhood? Is it a coming of age story? Is it a comedy? Some of the characters are so over the top they border on unbelievability, unless this is just a tongue-in-cheek approach. But the movie eventually hopscotches into some not-funny drama, carrying a sense of urgency that begins to endear us to some of the characters. Then out of the blue, the movie lurches into tragedy, not well placed nor well explained. I know a movie can portray a number of different themes, but this one is not done well. And that's too bad, because there is the possibility of a story here. It's just not executed well.
Is the review positive or negative?
