CJ7

China

Silly movie which ends up working better than I thought it would at the beginning. A poor boy, going to a richie school, gets a ball from his father, a dump-picker. The ball is an alien lifeform with some magical powers...broad comedy ensues.

Very broadly played this was helped enormously by the personality of the lead actor...who appeared around 10. He was a skinny little sparkplug, quite endearing and helped me overlook the obvious flaws in the production. I think kids would love this one.
