Instead of behaving like a boy from this time, you have the feeling of being a few centuries back in time: when asking for a daughter’s hand and kneeling is the order of the day. Coke, what’s that? Papa Ben dismisses it as “poison”.Īnd when the eldest of the children suddenly meets a girl, it really becomes clear how unworldly the young man is. Due to a major event in the life of the family, the family returns to the modern world and suddenly the most strange situations arise there. After all, just think: what happens to kids who grow up in the woods and learn everything from books and from their father? That’s right, they are completely otherworldly! Absurd situationsĪnd this is what makes the film hilarious and absurd at the same time in many moments. Yet they did not need that unique name, because as a viewer you immediately know that the children are unique. This just to send out a message: there is not one of them left. For example, one is called Rellian and another is called Vespyr. He passes this knowledge on to his six children, children who have extremely unique names. Yet the family members do not have the brain of a Neanderthal, after all, Ben (Viggo) comes from modern society and has a lot of knowledge in his pocket. The family is primitive, because they have to hunt to survive. Together with his six children, he consciously chose to live a secluded life in the wilderness, in the woods of America. With his bleached long hair, bath and strange hippie clothes, he looks like an extremely strange brush.Īlthough it is a brush with its own vision of the modern world.

Of course, the best man has many more titles to his name, but the role he now plays can be called striking. Viggo Mortensen stars in Captain Fantastic. In this Captain Fantastic review you can read that this film is part of that. Every now and then a film comes along that you think: you don’t have much of that.
