Really good family movie!, 8 March 2002
9/10
Author: kkennedy-1 from USA

This is a really nice movie adults and kids can watch together.

Daniel has some emotional problems, because his mother died, and his father left him. He lives with his kind, hard-working grandmother. He and his friends laugh at an odd older man who collects "beautiful" junk and uses it to make the unusual, odd, towers in his backyard. Daniel and his friends vandalize this man's work of art, and get into some other trouble in the neighborhood. But because of this man's kindness, Daniel learns to appreciate beauty where it can be found, and to take pride in personal work. Also, neighbors are shown helping each other, which is one of my pet themes.
