A friend lent me this video about 10 years ago and since that day ive always loved this film. Its not a big budget or all star cast yet it manages to bring warmth and humour that could have been so over done (ie Forrest Gump). Its a simple tale of a simple man with a love for trams. I wont spoil the plot but as above writers have put the car chase after the bank job is THE best ever. To top this off is a fantastic piece of music by the Penguin Cafe Orchestra. A hugely original, inventive and above all else Funny film. Buy, rent or borrow and you will have a smile on your face and a happy disposition at the end.
I first saw this film when i was 8 years old. It had everything a young lad could want. Action, Adventure, Suspense, Special Effects(yes honestly), Chases. The works.
It left an indelible mark on my mind, I compare every film i see against it. So far none have bettered it, some have come close but none have surpassed.
