"I hated this movie. The hateful hateful hated this movie. I hated it. I hated every stupid stupid moment of audience. Roger Ebert gloriously wrote In his reasonable review of Rob Rainer's eccentric film "North". /The writer of the Effef Ames is considered One of the worst movies he has ever made a great director. He declared "the north": "Everything that feels constructed, manipulated and fit, a huge contrast to Rainer's best works, which made it light charm and clever humor." Not only was it a critical fire of Damper, but also boxing office for earning just over $ 7 million in the United States despite his huge $ 40 million budget. If you dare to see "North", it is easy to see why it has desired and why critics consider it such contempt.

"North" was released in 1994, several years after director Rob Rainer suffered a flood of success with the "Bride Princess", "When Harry Meeted Sally ..." "Misery" and "A few Good People". Who wouldn't want to work with him? That is why the "north" has a list of laundry, including Bruce Willis, Alan Arkin, Dan Acro, Reba McKenar, Katie Bates, Johnon Ritter and Jonon Lovitz. The film also features some of the biggest television stars at the time, Iaululia Louis-Dreyfus and Jason Alexander, who played neurotic, fast-looking friends George and Elaine at Seinfeld. Iaululia Louis-Rejfus and Asoneyson Alexander carry the same chaotic energy and attractive chemistry they had on Seinfeld to the roles of the father and mum in the north-though they appear only briefly.

On paper, the plot of "north" sounds like it can be cunning, if not too strange, family comedy: A young boy travels the world in search of new parents, after being neglected by his real. The emancipation in the north becomes national news and inspires other children to leave their parents.

The north is a child of All-Star, who gets good grades, plays baseball and stars as Hamlet in what is probably the world's first elementary school production. But his parents work all the time and are too wrapped in their own myopia to notice (selfishness that feels too familiar with Asoneyson Alexander and Iaululia Louis-Dreyfus "Seinfeld" roles). We only have a sense of tense connection in the north with his parents in a quick scene, where they are angry about their jobs at the same time. The mother and dad in the north are so loud and self-inclined, they do not even hear each other and do not notice that the north has a panic attack and falls from the chair.

When one of the other parents hears about the plans in the north to find a new mother and dad, they say parents in the north "will not take this bed". Cut them to them. Get that? It's just one of the many painful shameful attempts of humor that this movie has. Two of the greatest comedy talents from the end of the 20th century spend most of the film frozen in shock and tied to Dolly. They appear only at the end to hug the north. This "joke", and the shameless loss of their comics, is not the most asin for "north".

The biggest problem with the "north" is that it doesn't know what tone to hit. The intention is to be a stupid fantasy, but filled with cynical and pure strange strokes from screenwriters Alan Zveel and Andrew Janeman, who come out as awkward Edgelors. This is evident in the north for new parents, who also rely on deeply offensive racial stereotypes.

Texans make light about their dead son (through Imdb) "The biggest boy to this great state has been seen. Why, he could have eaten more in a day than anyone else can eat all month," says Pex. Then Ma Tex responds: "That's why Buck hated February," before breaking into a powerless song and dance. Hawaiian's indigenous family wants to adopt the north to promote tourism. His potential father, Governor Hoe, tells him that more people would settle there if he lived there. A? Indigenous Hawaiians are pushed and prices because of land from land, they do not require no more. Katie Bates is wearing a face color to play an inuit character whose community is currently sending one of their elders to the ice to die. Yes, it was a historical practice, but it only happened during hunger. When the north travels to China, people worship it as if it is a deity. The whole concept of people with a color that worship the little white boy is over uncomfortable.

Looking at "north" it really feels like you were slipped into some kind of hallucinogenic; Nothing makes sense, it's racist and it's cruel. Two years later, Dani Davito's "Matilda" will nail the balance between Macaber's sensitivity and the height of fairy tales That Rainer failed to catch him. "North" is best forgotten.
