The Last Mimzy
This is one of those movies that surprises you – or at least it did me. Quite frankly, I don’t even remember why it was that we watched it. Perhaps it was a suggestion from a friend. But whatever the reason, we decided that we’d sit down with the family and see if it was any good. In the end, we were glad that we did.
It definitely starts off a bit slowly – in the not-to-distant future, Noah (Chris O’Neil) and his sister Emma (Rhiannon Leigh Wryn) going through some toys such as stuffed animals, trying to find something to do with them. It’s really a scene that most parents today might see at any point in any life. But then something a bit unusual happens.
