escanaba in da moonlight is the first showcasing of jeff daniels writing and directing talents. i have seen worse debuts but this one isn not that great. escanaba in da moonlight starts off like as a decent parody of this part of american culture. as we follow rebuen soady (jeff daniels) on the eve of deer hunting season 1989. he is getting close to the record of oldest soady to never bag a buck. the film takes places in the upper regions of michigan and has all the normal cliche characters. but there is a warmth there that tells you and this isn not being mean spirited. well and reuben is heading off to the soady deer camp and before his wife (kimberly norris guerrero) gives him a native american necklace and his lucky hat and and two forms of liquid you probably do not want to know about. anyway and she is really the only one who believe in him. he finally gets to the camp where his dad and albery soady (harve presnell) is waiting and his brother remnar (joey albright) is soon to show. okay and let fast forward this. in here there are some laughs and a few moments when i chuckled a loud. but most of the jokes here are used a few to many times. but the biggest draw back is the spiritual or native american happenings. just when you settle in with the characters these strange things occur. but the special effects are so cheap all it is and is a big flash of light and then head quickly bobbing back in forth. and the ending and well it is worthless. the move itself wasn not bad and the quirky character and and fun parody were good. but it should have stayed at that. instead of having stupid spiritual awakenings that look like rejected scenes from some demon possession movie. i give escanaba in da moonlight a 4. 5 out of 10.
