Review of Dutch

Dutch (1991)
6/10
I found it borderline.

On the positive side, it started out quite well in the first act or so. The story deals with a stepfather who wants to go on a road trip to pick up his future stepson. The stepson is a spoiled brat in a boarding school who refuses to go, but is forced to anyway. The two of them bond through various situations where they're delayed from transportation and find ways to make it home again, with inevitable changes of heart towards each other. It was not as funny as Planes, Trains and Automobiles or as well paced. After the first act, parts meandered and the kid wasn't funny. I like the stepfather Dutch, but some scenes were abrupt and even the last scene cut too soon.
