Unfunny. Boring. Endless.

"North"? This movie sinks due south, deep into ground oblivion.

It's rather surprising to note that - for its first half, at least - North is actually quite engaging and entertaining...

There's schmaltz a-plenty and the odd, rare laugh but even the normally dependable Wood lacks enthusiasm.

Unfortunately, although Zweibel and Reiner have crafted a fascinating parable, they have failed to make a successful film.

The intrinsic failure of Alan Zweibel and Andrew Scheinman's script is that it tips its hand from the start.

Reiner is undecided just how fantastically he should treat this ludicrous plotline. Added to which there's a dire musical number, a silly thriller subplot, and much maudlin didacticism from narrator Willis in various guardian angel (dis)guises. Misery.

North, a playful modern fable about a boy in search of new parents, doesn't always work, but much of it is clever in amusingly unpredictable ways.

How could director Rob Reiner, whose touch for what pleases a mass audience is usually unfailing, have strayed this far?

It's a prime example of what can happen when hip, slightly cynical establishment filmmakers try to make a deeply sentimental movie.
