A disappointing buildup, that starts to unfold after about an hour and end in seemingly nothing. I'd have expected a lot more from people involved in the production of pearls such as Turbo Kid, Greasy Strangler and ABCs of Death. Elijah Wood gives a solid performance as a hipster, but the writing of this and especially the more or less weak dialogues cannot save this.

E. Wood suits the role of hipsters who get into shit and get out of it, bringing out things from inside the character that you wouldn’t expect by looking at the mustache‍♂. The actor himself understands how not to remain Frodo forever. The film is funny, but it seems he doesn’t knew what he wanted to be, but the accident didn’t work out completely

3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Come to Daddy’: 1. I give it points for being wacky, weird, and original. And Elijah was fun to watch. Even though it felt like the film didn’t know what it wanted to be, the randomness kinda worked. 2. In the end, it’s quite forgettable. The film ends with no significant payoff or message. The final scene left me feeling a bit empty and disappointed. 3. I thought the film started off strong and super eerie. It legit made me uncomfortable. I went in knowing nothing and thought it’d end up being a supernatural story. It definitely took more than a few turns and was nothing I’d expected — both a good and not-so-good thing. Bonus Thought: I thought it was clever how we find out that Gordon sympathized with Norval, and why he didn’t kill him.

To paraphrase director Ant Timpson, ‘Come to Daddy’ is for people who laugh when they see somebody walk into a glass door, then laugh even harder when they notice that the person got a bloody nose. Personally, I found the film to be a delightful and unexpected highlight of the Sydney Film Festiv More
