Netflix Review of "The Boys Are Back"

We enjoyed this film a lot. Although it is annoying to watch the father (Clive Owen) indulging his younger son, it makes sense and you see Owen developing a better awareness of what is involved in being a father. We especially liked his growing relationship with his older son and how the father didn't give up after setbacks. We liked the photography and sense of place in the film and although it is slow and you don't agree with all his choices, we think it made a lot of sense and was absorbing to watch. FEB10
