Great fun

This movie is great fun to watch. It really made me laugh. Certainly if you have kids you will know what its all about. In fact if you have taken your kids on a very low budget holiday in England than this film will probably seem very familiar. I think it's quite an original film. I'm not sure about the ending though, it threw me a bit.

Poor little Eamon is an emotionally neglected child of selfish immature parents. When they all go on holiday Mum and dad attempt to satisfy their own needs at the expense of their lovely but hyperactive child. Eamon takes sweet revenge however.

The scenery is beautiful. The acting is mostly great except for a few uneasy moments. The ending is the only part of the film I am unsure what to think of. The couple next to me thought the ending was great though so it's a matter of opinion.
