A Lenda do Rubi Prateado

Currently, the IMDb statement telling of the origin of "The Legend of the Ruby Silver" is wrong - it is not an American film. The end credits reveal that it got funding from the Canadian government's film funding agency, which means it qualifies as being Canadian. But while this particular Canadian movie is somewhat more watchable than the usual pretentious crud the Canadian government funds, it all the same isn't a very good movie. I will give it this - the scenery is very nice, and it's the rare Canadian movie to have its story be clearly set in Canada (though the limited and quickly revealed evidence for this requires you to know western Canada geography well). And the ending has some unexpected elements. However, the movie is for the most part a big bore whether you are an adult or a kid. It plays out very slowly, and there is very little tension or action, with the few conflicts playing out in a way that you know will work out for the deserving characters. In the end, it will likely make parents who screen this movie for themselves and their kids that movie sex and violence can't always be bad.
