Movie Review: ‘Come To Daddy’ Is Wonderfully Weird And Warped

Come To Daddy…I was not prepared for the film. From the very beginning, I had a tense, uneasy feeling. Little did I know, that feeling would only grow. Elijah Wood has portrayed a lot of odd characters in the past, but Norval in Come to Daddy has to be the weirdest. In the film, Norval receives a letter from his estranged father that abandoned him and his mother when he was five. The letter asks Norval (Woods) to come for a visit, but as soon as he arrives he’s confronted by a man (Stephen McHattie, “October Faction”) whom he thinks is his father. After a few days of tense interactions and violent outbursts, Norval begins to question his situation. Soon he makes a discovery that leaves him fighting for his life. I have long been a fan of Elijah Wood, he’s a talented actor. However, his character in this movie is just unlikable. Norvel is a pathetic, whiny, wuss, and
