Son of Rambow has gotten a lot of attention as it's made its way through festivals and a UK release, partially for its youthful Huck Finn-esque premise and also because the filmmakers [Hammer and Tongs] are among the fresh new wave of British filmmakers coming to the table with skill and something interesting on their mind. The film is about two boys who are influenced by Rambo, First Blood Part II and make their own little home version of it as well as the world around these two drastically different kids and how crazy their project becomes.
Folks who have seen it have said it's special. People whose opinion means a damn.

No, it's a film about tweo boys who are infuluenced by First Blood. The first one not the second one which was generally usually just referred to as Rambo before Rambo turned up and fecked everything up. Anyway, tis a good film - although I know some have been disappointed by it due to not being as funny as they thought it would be. Don't go into it expecting a comedy.

Aren't Hammer & Tongs the guys responsible for that awful Hitchhiker's movie?
