Today’s Moviewatch is The Lamp, by Innovatif. Here’s a tip that will help you from the beginning. The two characters are credited as “Blue Idiot” and “Red Idiot.” They’re not stand-ins for kids or anything, they’re just a pair of idiots. That being said, I’m shocked and aghast that Alliance was used for token idiots!

The Lamp is pretty amusing. I’m not sure I laughed out loud, but I was definitely grinning at watching the clods go through their Christmas morning. It doesn’t hurt that their excitement over a found lamp reminds me of my favorite phrase – I love lamp! (Or, for me, I love Tank!) And is often the case when a pair of idiots find a shiny object, the story progresses and hijinks ensue.

“The Lamp” is decent to watch, but I think it struggles a little bit against the recent rash of astounding films. I hope to see more from Innovatif, as I think this shows a lot of promise.
