Tomboy (2011)
1/10
Booooring!!

Complete waste of time. Probably one of the worst movies of all times. What was announced as a social critical movie turns out to be 120 minutes without a plot, without storyline, without credible characters but with unbelievable lengths. As if someone left the camera running while some happy family life goes on. Child stretches hand out of the driving family-car for two minutes - cut - child sits on daddy's lap, allowed to help with the steering - a few left and right turns - cut - kids play away in the living room - another three minutes filled - cut - family has supper together - still no sign of a story - camera sneaks backwards out the kitchen - cut - and so on. Eventually one sees what one knew beforehand: Tomboy is really a girl. Does this exhilarate the movie in any way? Not in the least. The scene is followed by more insights in this child's life. Scenes on the playground, in school, at home. And so on and on and on. Definitely a favorite for the yawn award!
