This one is sneaky fantastic. A woman who appears to be ill-equipped and not too interested in raising her pre-teen son, drops him off to live with two crack-pop and mysterious distant relatives. They regale with tales of adventure and heroism and help him on the journey to manhood in very unorthodox fashion. Great family movie that is full of fun, redemption, and insight. Robert Duval’s “Hub McCan” is one of the more endearing characters you will meet in film.
