Kauwboy Audience Reviews

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Dorathen Better Late Then Never
Freaktana A Major Disappointment
Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Yannis Sfetkos Do you like dull and boring movies? If so then this movie is for you. Same European low budget film which is based on deep meanings where only sophisticated audience will get. Also considered art, not for a shallow thinkers and audience like us. Acting of a 10 year old and a bird. Actually this movie is so boring I could place it in the top 10 boring movies of all time.
griz-259-175100 In an era when many movies are just re-hashes of other movies this little production distinguishes itself. Very watchable. Touching. Engaging. Real. Anyone who has known loss way too soon in life will identify. The lead actor has real talent. You quickly forget you're watching an actor, so natural is his performance. And the directing distinguishes itself as well. It's said never work with animals or children, or animal-like children (hey, he growls and bites!). But the performance coaxed out of this young talent is notable. And I can't imagine working with a bird was any easier. Kudos all around And please do watch it until the very end for a very special scene.
ahmadtghazal1998 I loved it because it touches on human emotions. In my opinion, the reason it is a good movie is because the bird he loves dies. If it had lived it would have turned the movie into a gushy-goo drama that would not have been liked by most people. Another reason is that it is a story that commonly happens between single parents and children.It made me sad that the father doesn't understand what the boy is going through, and the boy does not understand that his father wants to forget about his dead wife. My heart goes out to all those who are going through or went through a similar situation.It is a must watch movie for most ages and i hope that this review helped.Thank you.
sanjsrik The movie starts out the same way it ends. Whatever you do, see it with subtitles. If it does come out dubbed, I wonder if something may be lost.Jojo is a little boy, maybe 8 or 10, he's struggling with his mom not being around. he talks to her on the telephone telling her things about his life and the Jackdaw chick he's rescued from the nest. He initially tries to return the chick but the mother refuses and tries to attack him and the chick falls back out. He takes the chick home.Throughout the movie when you suspect that the tone is going to get deep and heavy and maudlin, it lilts back to life thanks to an incredibly moving soundtrack and Jojo's spirit with the connection to the Jackdaw chick. There's so much more going on in this movie than meets the surface. It's one of those that should be watched more than once. To see such a spectacular performance from the main character is simply amazing.No spoilers, just, if you're lucky enough to see this movie, enjoy it. It's worth the effort to find.
