Come to Daddy

First half is better than the second half. Around the 51 minute mark, the movie changes completely. The first half is 10/10. Second half is more of a 5/10. I wish it would've remained a father & son conflict as it was in the beginning. The enemies and their tactics are not very believable. There's a number of very unrealistic choices made by all the characters. But I was still entertained throughout, so I recommend it.

So many times I watched a movie with bad reviews mainly rated by young people and it turned out I loved the movie. Can YouTube somehow take into consideration to show ratings per generation or age range?

I'm tired of trolls with short attention spans having a major impact on ratings, using reviews as an outlet for their primary reactions. Most of their comments are immature, stupid or ignorant.

Yeah, c'mon hate on me. I bet this probably sounds like grumpy old man talk to you.

Let's just respect the fact that there is a generation gap and I'd like to be able to sort the ratings by age range.

Norval Greenwood (Elijah Wood) visits his estranged father after receiving an unexpected letter from him. He hasn't seen his father for decades. Then the father grows more bitter and drunken over time. The situation gets more and more surreal.

This is a nice little black comedy horror but I do think that it could have pushed harder. It could be funnier or more brutal in filming. It's all there but the movie seems to be holding back. Norval is like that. Elijah Wood plays the wimp here and he does grow a pair over time. I would have liked him to fight harder in the motel. I expected more henchmen coming for him. I expected more from this movie.

The plot seems innocuous at first, but then it gets weird then downright bizarre. This is in a good way though, as the plot twists in ways you can't imagine. It is an strange but enjoyable journey.

A musician from Beverly Hills receives a letter from his estranged father asking him to come and visit him in his secluded cabin overlooking a lake n surrounded by woods. As audience we suspect that something is not right after the phone calls, but trust me the film is not at all predictable. It is very hilarious n well acted. Elijah Wood gave a good performance and Michael Smiley is hilarious with his ultimate weapons, a pen n a crossbow. The film is a bit slow in the beginning but picks up n then doesn't let go. I was laughing my guts out. I didn't like the director's Greasy Strangler. Found it gross n offensive. But this movie is less gross n more comedic.
