Such a frustrating disappointment

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Do you like dull and boring movies? If so then this movie is for you. Same European low budget film which is based on deep meanings where only sophisticated audience will get. Also considered art, not for a shallow thinkers and audience like us. Acting of a 10 year old and a bird. Actually this movie is so boring I could place it in the top 10 boring movies of all time.

A sumptuously photographed slice of life drama about a man and his ten year old son coming to terms with a change in their circumstances. The scenery is both stunning and stark in turns. The writing is spot on; it is astutely observed and achingly accurate. And above all, the acting is first rate. It is so natural that you forget that they are actors. Beauty and heartache abound here, and you will love Jojo, and, at times, hate his father Ronald. And you will wonder why Jojo tries so hard to reach his father. And you will wonder where the mother is in all of this. But throughout, your perceptions will be constantly contradicted. And yet the ending is perfect.

In a time when most movies are all flour of the same bag, it's refreshing to see a touching, sensitive movie like this. There are many movies about dogs, few are about cats and even less so are about birds or other animals. This is one of those rare movies about birds.Basically it tells the story of a lonely dutch child with the strange name of Jojo and his special friendship with an adorable baby jackdaw. The kid has a peerless performance and so does the bird. The friendship and love between the boy and the bird is the best aspect of this good movie. Its worst aspect is Jojo's father, a cold and distant man with tendency for violence. Another thing I don't like in this otherwise great movie is the horrible way the innocent bird dies, even if it was accidental. The poor thing was loved by Jojo, hated by Jojo's father and died so horribly.The title of this movie strongly resembles "Cowboy", both written and spelled. But its meaning is entirely different.Title in Portugal: je ne sais pas.

The movie starts out the same way it ends. Whatever you do, see it with subtitles. If it does come out dubbed, I wonder if something may be lost.Jojo is a little boy, maybe 8 or 10, he's struggling with his mom not being around. he talks to her on the telephone telling her things about his life and the Jackdaw chick he's rescued from the nest. He initially tries to return the chick but the mother refuses and tries to attack him and the chick falls back out. He takes the chick home.Throughout the movie when you suspect that the tone is going to get deep and heavy and maudlin, it lilts back to life thanks to an incredibly moving soundtrack and Jojo's spirit with the connection to the Jackdaw chick. There's so much more going on in this movie than meets the surface. It's one of those that should be watched more than once. To see such a spectacular performance from the main character is simply amazing.No spoilers, just, if you're lucky enough to see this movie, enjoy it. It's worth the effort to find.
