Ethics, being human and the soul come to the fore when a 7-year old finds a bag of Pounds just days before the currency is switched to Euros and learns what we are really made of.
Flashy and colorful moral fantasy has its moments, and the kids perform excellently, but the movie carries its message blatantly on its sleeve.
Maltin***: "A smart, surprising and spiritual change of pace for TRAINSPOTTING director Boyle...Newcomer Ethel provides genuinely touching moments that are never maudlin. Boyle's zippy visuals are another plus; he forgoes the usually dreary movie look of British neighborhoods to make these sunny English 'burbs look like a Technicolor haven."
