Everyone remembers seeing a film when they're a kid that completely blows their mind and changes the way they see films for ever. For many it was Star Wars: Episode IV , for IGN it was comedy classic Police Academy IV: Citizens on Patrol, but for Hithchikers Guide to the Galaxy director Garth Jennings, Rambo: First Blood was his formative cinematic experience and the inspiration for his latest effort Son of Rambow. The film revolves around two 12-year old boys who are so struck by Stallone's violent epic they decide to craft a remake with little more than a cam-corder and a healthy dose of imagination. With the film earning rave reviews on the festival circuit, and now set for a UK release this Friday, IGN spoke to Jennings to find out more.
IGN: Was the film's huge success on the festival circuit a surprise?
Garth Jennings: Yeah it was kind of weird. I mean we always had high hopes for it. You're not making it, thinking: "it'll never work", your thinking "this is going to be great!"
