Stranded: I've Come from a plane that crashed in the Mountains

Ah! Stranded: I've Come from a plane that crashed in the Mountains, I have been waiting for you my whole life. Finally, a film adaptation of the Nobel Prize winner My Side of the Mountain. Not only was that, like, my most favorite book in 5th grade ever (way better than Goosebumps(tm)[RIP]), but to make things sweeter, it turned into a hella killer movie!

To see the influence of the original book on this stunning and immaculate picture, you need no more than a blunt wit, and maybe some eyeballs. You see Bilbo from MSOTM bravely hiked in to the mountains to carve out a home in a tree and befriend some Peregrine Falcon, wheras Shilo, from S:ICFAPTCINM, hikes OUT of the mountains, to carve out a home in a city dumpster and befriend a hemophilic rat-Mikey, portrayed brilliantly by ratctor Sniffles McWhiskers.

And here we arrive at the central theme of this brilliant work of film: hemophilia. My public school education taught me that all characters in books are Tragic Heroes, and Shilo is no exception. His flaw, hemophilia, though endearing at first, eventually leads to his downfall. Just as our hearts are lifted when he manages to survive the plane crash despite his condition, they are dashed to the ground when, in a nod to my most favorite 4th grade book, Hatchet, Shilo succumbs to a hatchet wound acquired during a civil dispute with Mikey. Heartwrenching stuff, seriously.
