Absolutely the worst movie.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

He could have just pulled one balloon down at a time and popped them with his mouth. Regardless a good movie and I love the Aussies!! His wife is a doll. I would love to try it out some day and fly around town with some weed and beer. That would be an experience right. I have to put more lines so I am going to blubber on for a while to make this review work. Lalalala I liked the movie and I am in love with Trudy. That's about all I have to say. I love Trudy. What a funny name Trudy, it must be Australian. Well I am almost up to 10 line in this review so thanks for reading. Oh darn one more line to go, this is so dumb. Why do they make us do this?

It's good to see the good guys win for a change, and Danny Deckchair is a love story that gives you the warm fuzzies. When I sat back and thought about the movie, there really wasn't too much that I disliked about it - a few minor things but I can overlook them in the grand scheme of it all. Really from the first few minutes of the film when Danny is looking for things to do to keep himself occupied, you know that this is going to be an interesting film. And the whole concept of him tying helium balloons onto his lawn chair to see if it will make him fly, as unrealistic as it sounds, just emphasizes the surreal adventure he is about to embark on to find his calling in life.If you like romantic comedies and Australian people, or the happy and fantastical towns from such movies as Edward Scissorhands and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, you're bound to be won over by DannyDeckchair.

I watched this movie with my wife the other night as a change of pace. To be honest, she did not get it and wanted to turn it off after 15 minutes. I almost agreed to do it, but one thought kept me from turning it off. I liked the main character. He sort of came across as a person that I would be friends with, and as such, I wanted to know what would happen to him.His adventures are fun, if perhaps a bit formulaic, and the outcome is never in doubt, but I never minded because to me, the movie was meant to be about the everyday life of an ordinary guy who made an unusual decision and in this regard the movie excelled.The acting is understated and convincing. The main and secondary characters are well written, perhaps a bit clichéd (I think this adds to the movie by keeping you focused on Danny).If you are looking for a fun lighthearted movie, give this one a chance. Be prepared, the movie takes a while to get going so make sure not to be hasty in your decision. BTW, at the end, my wife was also rooting for Danny, and her rating would be a 7.

When I first read the synopsis on my channel guide, it seemed like a rather silly movie, whose focus was on some guy floating around in a deck chair. I almost passed on it for that reason. Fortunately, there wasn't much else on, so I recorded it for later viewing. Much to my surprise, I found a very endearing story of how love, life, and a reminder of how easy it is to slip into the everyday drudgery habit. I don't want to ruin the story line, so suffice it to say, the movie is well worth the 90 minutes spent watching. And if your a big fan of LOTR, you'll be pleased with female lead, Miranda Otto, who played Eowyn.
