Ignore the Plot! Play "Spot The Mini!"
28 March 2005
Warning: Spoilers
The 2 main boys are brilliant. Ignore the darn plot, just play Spot the Mini in each scene. See if you can see any other car (Apart from the Limo) other than green mini's.

There are various issues that are howling mistakes in the film, which really annoy me.

An 11 year old boy isn't going to be arrested for murder. He certainly isn't going to be tried in a different country from where he "committed" the offense. He sure as hell isn't going to be executed in England. He's a minor for god's sake! And not by bloody firing squad either. This is only for military prisoners during war-time. England's death penalty was abolished in the 50's. And that was death by hanging. I don't know of ANY space agency that will send a 1 person mission to rescue people. And certainly not with a child!

The film is basically a bit of harmless garbage. The backgrounds are pretty good, the flats where they live, the school and the interiors are all wonderful.

Just watch it and play Spot The Mini, that's the most fun way to pass the time during the film.
