Age of Bryce is about a young boy with an over protective mother who wants to experience life rather than observing it.
The camera work is great. It's up close and personal; you see all the facial expressions of Bryce throughout the film. It feels as if you're right there with him on screen. The costumes definitely add to the humor. For example, when Bryce is near the pool, he is lathered up with multiple flotation devices and on a tether to his mother. Bryce is played by Major Dodson and he has great facial expression; even when his lines are limited you can still feel his frustration with the rules surrounding him. Virginia Paul is portrayed by Deanna Toten Beard who is perfect in this role as the over protective mom. Her voice is spot on for the droning role of the mother.
The message of this film is to break free from unnecessary boundaries and discover life.
I give this film 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it to ages 8 to 18, plus adults. It is funny and entertaining but could also open discussion to parenting role. Reviewed by Selene W., KIDS FIRST! Film Critic
