Bloodworth is a movie about two people: a man from the Tennessee hill country who abandoned his family 40 years before the movie starts, and his grandson. The grandson ultimately walks away from his entire insane hillbilly family. It ends with "the one who gets out" setting fire to his family's country cabin and walking way, a la What's Eating Gilbert Grape.
This movie was quite good. There are parts that are a bit overdone, but I liked it! The basic tension in the plot is between the importance of family, and the importance of walking away from the people you're bound to if they hold you down and back.
I've come to accept the fact that I like virtually all movies, and no one who ever reads my movie reviews is likely to ever see a negative movie review out of me.
