The Peanut Butter Falcon – 2019
Peanut Butter Falcon, what an absolutely gem of a feel-good film that kept the entire theater crowd, all six of us, in our seats through the last credit just to make sure we didn’t miss anything. No sex, no random acts of violence, no special effects, gizmos or gadgets, just a sweet, rewarding story line where the good bad guys win and the bad good guys lose. I totally predicted Zach, the runaway Downs Syndrome Southern boy wanna be wrestler, coming of age Karate Kid moment and still LOVED IT! Peanut Butter Falcon’s cast especially Shia LaBeouf as Tyler, Dakota Johnson as Eleanor, Zach Gottsagen as Zach and Bruce Dern as Carl we’re perfectly matched to their roles and to each other in this Everglades rafting odyssey. 97% Rotten Tomatoes audience rating. Seriously, I can’t begin to imagine who are the 3% that didn’t like this heartwarming film fable. Every so often I need a life timeout for a dose of happily-ever-after. Got my fix today! 👍
