Movie Reviews of The Good Son

Movie Review: GOOD THRILLER ! REMAKE OF "THE BAD SEED " ?
Summary: 3 Stars

I must be getting soft in my old age as I did not like this film all that much years ago when I saw it for the first time. The biggest problem for me is that they really push the believability factor in this one towards the end of this film. Culkin and Wood turn in good performances and it does deliver enough thrills to hold the viewer for the 86 minute running time. Not a bad thriller which is basically a remake of "The Bad Seed". The DVD transfer is good.

Movie Review: Evil is as evil does.
Summary: 3 Stars

The Good Son starring Macaulay Culkin and Elijah Wood may seem like a silly film but I actually enjoyed this dark story. Culkin is anything but likable in this thriller, Wood always gives a good peformance. The two stars have great chemistry and many people see this film as a guilty pleasure, I guess you can say that so with that in mind give this sleeper film a try, enjoy!

Movie Review: Good movie
Summary: 3 Stars

Hadn't seen this in a long time. Chilling role for Macaulay Culkin. Never see Home Alone in the same light again!

Movie Review: stick with the classic "the bad seed" instead
Summary: 1 Stars

this must have seemed like a great idea at the time,"cast culkin against type as a killer child and show his range as an actor". the problem is his range is all the way from a to b.
this movie never explains how or why the boy turns killer and asks us to except one too many "chance" happenings. in the end all we get is this "thriller"(and i use the term very loosely)that thinks just the idea of culkin as a killer is thrilling.
