Movie Review - A Man Called Otto

“A Man Called Otto” has not been a well-marketed film. The strategy of the film’s advertising seems to be, “You know how Tom Hanks usually plays likeable/heroic characters to go along with his reputation for being a nice guy in real life? Come to this movie to get the opposite of that! See his versatility as he complains in a phony-sounding growly voice for 90 percent of the movie, followed by a heartwarming turnaround so sweet that most of the audience will be making the universal sign for gagging.
