Storyline
Joe Toy, on the verge of adolescence, finds himself increasingly frustrated by his single father, Frank's attempts to manage his life. Declaring his freedom once and for all, he escapes to a clearing in the woods with his best friend, Patrick, and a strange kid named Biaggio. He announces that they are going to build a house there, free from responsibility and parents. Once their makeshift abode is finished, the three young men find themselves masters of their own destiny, alone in the woods.
Toy's House was an interesting film following what most teenage kids
wish...A kid who finally breaks free from his parents control. Joe Toy
and his friend Patrick get fed up with their parents and decide to
build a house in the woods to live in.
I really enjoyed this movie. It seemed to have the right mix of comedy
and drama to keep you engaged the whole movie. Watching a couple of
teenage boys try and survive in the woods was a lot of fun, and Nick
Offerman as Joe's dad was a lot of fun as well. The biggest thing to
note, is that while this is billed as a comedy, it was definitely more
than that. The emotional aspect of this movie was everything you come
to expect from a movie that has to sale itself with a great story, like
most films at Sundance, which made it all that more fun.
