Be Kind Rewind

What an odd movie. I have to say I've never seen anything with a concept like this before.
Mike works in a video store. One day his best friend (Black) gets an electric shock, and manages to wipe all the tapes in the store. This leads to the pair of them creating their own versions of all the movies.
At first it seems to make no sense - why would people believe these are the real movies? Turns out, thankfully, they don't. There is very definitely a Hollywood sense here though that anyone could make a good movie. I'm not convinced they're right. This is by no means a bad movie, but it's not a good one either. It's just, well, odd. And a bit random.
Rating: 3 out of 5
