1st watched 6/21/2001 - 5 out of 10(Dir-Hector Barron) Despite being very funny at times, Lloyd suffers from an unequal direction in it's goals as a movie. I believe the fault lies with the producer's/director's. Todd Bosley gives a tremendous realistic portrait of a not-so-handsome boy and his dealings with school, life etc... He is extremely funny at times, and realistically confused and sad at others. Tom Arnold also does a good job as a magician who befriends Lloyd. These performances could have made a good movie, but the makers didn't seem like they really knew what direction they wanted to go with this. They threw in scenes that had the type of humor that would appeal to teenage kids, but then also seemed to want to hit the moral adult crowd by tugging at our heartstrings. The bottom line is that this made the total film experience confusing.
