This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This is truly awful film, genuinely torturous viewing. A bona fide 1 out of 10 film and that's only because '0' isn't an option. I won't describe the plot again, plenty have done that already and I don't want to think about this film more than I have to.The comedy aspects aren't remotely funny, there is no tension, no suspense, no excitement, pants cgi, poor production values, I could go on.It's not even so bad it's good, it's so bad it's painful.There is nothing redeeming about this film.I will allow the film 1 out of 10 because the film-makers,on a low budget, at least had a go at it - they failed.I was the only person that managed to sit through it until the end - the other viewers left my lounge - it didn't even have enough about it for them to watch and ridicule how bad it was!I am now two hours closer to the end of my life and these film-makers are responsible for that wasted time.Possibly the worst film I have ever seen and I generally enjoy watching B-Movie junk. How anyone can give this anything other than 2/10 I can't comprehend - I can only assume that they have suffered a traumatic head injury or a lobotomy.

This movie was one of the worst I have ever seen. The acting is bad, storyline is terrible, I nearly fell asleep several times watching this boring movie. Nothing scary about it besides the blue screen used throughout the movie. Don't waste your time with this movie. The cover may look enticing, but don't be fooled. I would go into detail about the storyline but this movie has wasted enough of my time...the only comment my friend had to say after watching it with me was "I actually feel stupider watching that movie." After all that being said, the movie was a total waste of a movie night. I love horror movies and my favorites are the titles nobody has heard about. This movie obviously fell into that category, the cover art is actually not bad and gives off the feeling of a potential winner. After watching 5 minutes of it I knew it was going to be bad. Throughout the movie it switches from the blue screen to footage so, needless to say it gets very irritating. So please don't be like me and be fooled by the cover art of this film.

All the good and bad about this pointed out by others, it seems we either love or loathe this.But I can't help being reminded by this of another movie I first saw some years ago. It too was mostly done by one man, who directed and wrote it, did all the cinematography, editing and special effects. Had all his friends in it playing roles. That film was Bad Taste, shot by another guy called Peter, a kiwi, name of Jackson.I thoroughly enjoyed "Small Town Folk", it was fun and a great laugh. Well paced, and well shot and put together. OK, the blue screen's a bit obvious sometimes, but on a budget, needs must. And yeah the script is a bit corny, but witty with it.As for Peter Stanley-Ward (and his crew) I say, "next time moosh" Cos I wanna see more of his creativity.

In the original release of this film, was it in 3D? Because if it wasn't, then the use of CG in this film is an abortion. I LOVE bad horror flicks, but this one so far is just freaking lame. I was obviously tricked by cleaver marketing folks at Blockbuster, because all over the box it was billed how this film was some kind of visionary masterpiece, but it is far from it. The parts that are supposed to be funny, aren't even that.Trust me, I am not someone who takes these films too seriously, after all, 'Troll 2' is one of my fav films. But this film isn't even bad enough to be "so bad it's good"BOOOOOO this title!!!!!
