6/10

An uneven experiment in voice-over...

The film begins adequately enough when a series of unexpected deaths plague a children's classroom. Animals and plants die with increasing rapidness and no one seems able to control it. Ah, the trials of elementary school.

The child actors in the film are passable, but none have that much charisma, and it's curious as to why the directors did not cast an older man as the teacher, for the actor who plays him displays more exuberance than maturity. There is nothing subtle about his performance. What starts as mildly entertaining soon derails into inconsistent sap. I sat there wondering what was happening and how a film about the importance of life could have bored me to death as steadily as it did. While the end of the film is congruent with that of the short story it still makes little sense. The film is mediocre at best.
