I was pleasantly surprised by Mumford, with my interest having only been mildly piqued by the trailers. It's a very engaging film, partly due to the believeable characters, and partly due to the offbeat plot development. Although the plot line is not terribly original, the way it moves forward is refreshing.
The cast is very well-rounded, with no big stars, althnough the performances of Loren Dean, Jason Lee, Mary McDonnell and David Paymer (yes, David Paymer) really gave the story some juice.
