I'm Nicole from ReachOUT.tv. Based on the
Newberry Honor book, HOOT is a film well worth seeing. I myself was
pleasantly surprised with this
movie. HOOT revolves around a Montana boy, Roy, who moves
to Florida where he meets Beatrice and a
mysterious barefooted boy, Mullet Fingers.
Through Mullet Roy learns a wonderful yet
terrible secret. The construction site of
the new Mother Paula's pancake house is on
the nesting ground of an endangered species
of owls. By building this pancake house all
of the owls on the site will be killed. Unfortunately
the three kids seem to be the only ones who
care, and although the odds don't seem to
be in their favor the three friends will
stop at nothing to protect the little owls.
This film is appropriate for all ages. It
is a good lesson on how we should care for
the little animals that we share God's creation
with, but while Roy, Beatrice, and Mullet
have the right idea their actions are sometimes
not the best. I wouldn't suggest running
away from a cop and tying a man up to save
the owls, but I do commend the three friends
for taking a stand.
HOOT was nicely cast and beautifully executed.
It is a film that you should take your whole
family to see. All in all we may feel inadequate,
but we are never too small to help others
... even if they're little owls.
