cw4_918b OK, so it's not Bob Newhart, more like Red Skelton. But I think you'll like it.The running jokes about poop were inexplicably funny. Your 10-year-old son will find them hilarious. The roles are broadly written, almost stereotypical, but the acting isn't bad, the plot line is ingenious, the scenery is terrific, the slapstick inspired. I'm no student of cinema, but the craftsmanship in making the film looks pretty good to me. Camera work seemed quite good. Your young daughters might get a complex about the movie's premise, or you might use the movie to talk with them about foolish preferences for male children around the world.A fine little movie, one that'll leave a smile on your face.
arlauny Mr. Bones may base mainly on so called 'toilet humor' and has a rough start. Maybe for some of you this special kind of humor is too flat, but it's up to you to decide. In my opinion this movie plays with humor in a sympathetic, childlike and simple way that forces me to think that the scriptwriter was totally drunk (maybe something else...)! I watched a lot of films lately, but none of them made me laugh as hard as this one. OK, if you want some pretentious entertainment this movie should not be your choice but for all other people: "Ignore the story and ignore the dialogs! Just enjoy the scenery and the jokes and have a good time!"
ray I saw Mr. bones at a "Sneak Preview" where they have shown films such as "Big Trouble", "One Night at McCool's", "Tomcats", "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" or "The Animal" (with Rob Schneider) previously.If you did enjoy some of the movies mentioned above - which I admit I did [despite of the lousy ratings they have received], cauz they made me laugh -- and life is just too serious outside the movies after all; and as long as you don't mind some elephants' excrements being shown, then your money and time is not wasted at all.Aside from the fun aspect - and without immersing to deep into the field of mass media theory: I found it quite remarkable, that this sort of movie would be made in the former apartheid-state South Africa: a white "witch doctor", a black pro golfer ... Mr. Bones reminded me of the books by Tom Sharpe (who got kicked out of RSA while it still was an apartheid-state) which on the average get 8 out of 10 from me as well.
loss I went to a sneak preview last week, where i saw Mr. bones. I didn't know that this movie would be shown. At the beginning i thought that it could be quite funny but i was completely wrong on that. It was so bad i couldn't help laughing about the fact that such a movie is even produced. Leon Schuster combines bad acting with a ridiculous story and even the jokes are not worth a smile. They are limited on people getting hammered down by excrements of several animals. 1 out of 10
