It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

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

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

It's been at least twenty years since I last saw this little gem but hardly a week goes by when it doesn't pop up in my mind at some point. The other review dwells on the peculiar visual devices of the film that make it seem something like an animator's line-test from a dream. To the hypnotic rhythm of the flickering zoetrope-like "split-screen" imagery is added a very apt soundtrack of distant tolling bells, the soft (but menacing) repeating swish of a scythe, interjections of breathy whistling in homage to the wind through wheat stalks, the weightless calls of distant animals, and you have a beautifully-opaque enigmatic pastorale, exactly as I (mis?)remember it.

This is a brilliant hand drawn animated short. In Damon the Mower the title character is swinging his scythe and his figure is drawn in different positions so the scythe stays in the frame even when he moves it way to the left or right or above his head; so sometimes part of the character goes off the edge of the paper. The drawings are on small cards placed on a table to be photographed. The camera is framed wide enough to see several inches around the card, so when the framing of the action changes the card is moved frame by frame to see all of the action; so even though the card moves, the character stays in the same place. The drawings are sketchy and a little rough, but the effect is mesmerizing.
