Review of Malcolm

Malcolm (1986)
10/10
Excellent film - thoroughly engaging
4 February 2007
Trying to find a copy to buy - it's that good. It's my favourite film of all time.... Charming, well acted though a mostly unknown cast, good entertaining story line and the music score is quite up beat too. Will make you laugh. It's a film where the good guy gets one over on society, his work and his oppressors. Makes you feel good inside. Watch it if you can - you'll enjoy it.

Yes, its a 'feel good' movie, but it has so many other attributes.

I'll starty you off on the story line... Malcolm is a mid-twenties creature of habit with a mental age of a 12 year old and a social age of about six. He lives with his mum, works for the local tram company and has the same routine every day. Then mum dies and the locals try to help Malcolm survice. He takes a lodger who is not one of the local law enforcements' favourite people - surprisingly - this is where the fun starts...
