Title: Sweet!
Review: Napoleon Dynamite. You'll either love it or hate it. Me? I loved it. To me it was just a sweet, funny movie about a nerd who really didn't care that he was nerd. After all, he had skills! I think many people will be able to relate to the nerds vs. the popular kids theme (I mean, didn't your school have a Summer Wheatley?) and Napoleon's sense of not really caring made this a real 'feel-good' movie. So many scenes reminded me of my school years--tetherball on the playground, slow dancing in the gym, tator tots in the cafeteria. Great lines too! I find myself saying "Yessssss" far too often now, but what a fun movie find! Make sure you listen to the commentary on the special features. Oh yeah, I let my eight year old son watch this and he loved it too. Definitely a safe movie for families to watch together...if you like that kind of humor!
