i'm sorry new zealand. though i comprehend and admire munro's achievements, i don't see the greatness in this film. it comes across as a disney movie. "is this a disney movie?"...i kept asking myself. there is little or no i'm sorry new zealand. though i comprehend and admire munro's achievements, i don't see the greatness in this film. it comes across as a disney movie. "is this a disney movie?"...i kept asking myself. there is little or no character development whatsoever. the story is outlined much too shallowly (is that a word?), especially over the first hour. it seems we are rushed to the conclusion. it was hard to get into when not enough was revealed about the characters early on. also, the film had a generally childish feel, not kiddy films are bad, but i felt as if i was being read a bedtime story. some plot elements were relatively absurd and took my mind out of the story, such as the rushed relationship development between munro and that girl. it was also pretty random when munro collapsed that first time, it was as if we the audience were being forced to feel bad for him without knowing much about him. the lack of attribution of munro's character to the real essence of the man does not do him justice... this reminded me of the portrayal of cash in that piece of crap movie "walk the line" cash was and is awesome and that movie was a huge disservice to the true essence of the man. "ray" proved that some human greatness in a biopic can be imitated on film, but i think "world's fastest indian" fell far short of this (and "walk the line" was a piece of crap).… Expand

Papy Zinzin n'a qu'uneC'est l'histoire d'un papy cardiaque trompe-la-mort qui fait le jacky avec sa brêle toute pourrie qu'il rafistole à grands renforts de pièces de cafetière et de charnières de portes, de pneus rechapés et de chatterton. Papy Zinzin n'a qu'une idée dans la caboche : se rendre au grand rassemblement des trifouilleurs Castomerlin à Bonneville... ce qui fait une trotte de son patelin au fond du fion de la Nouvelle-Zélande. Il aurait demandé, on lui aurait expliqué : "Papy, pour les runs, tu vas au Cora du coin, ça te reviendra moins cher".

Le vieux débris est donc une tronche à baffes insupportable mais le talent d'Anthony Hopkins suffit à faire passer la pillule gentillette et très neuneu, il faut bien le dire (on dirait que c'est produit par Disney). Néanmoins le film peut faire sourire de temps à autre et garde un rythme assez satisfaisant malgré ses deux heures bien tassées grâce à la réalisation de bon aloi de Roger Donaldson.… Expand

There is an interesting story being told here, it's just gets lost in the schmaltz and cheesiness of it all.
