From the rural town of Preston, Idaho, comes Napoleon Dynamite. With a red 'fro, his moon boots and illegal government ninja moves, he is a new kind of hero. His family consists of fragile brother Kip, who's seeking his soulmate in online chat rooms; Uncle Rico, who is stuck in his "glory" days of high school football; and Grandma, who enjoys going out to the dunes on her quad-runner. Napoleon spends his days drawing magical beasts, working on his computer hacking skills to impress the chicks, and begrudgingly feeding his grandma's pet llama. When his friend Pedro decides to run for class president, it is Napoleon to the rescue to help him triumph over adversity. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

I’m probably overly conservative, but this loser story that doesn't really go anywhere is too "weird" for me. There are a few perfect moments but then there is the rest, which lies in a different dimension of humor. Yet for those who sometimes feel a bit "different" in society, it is certainly a blessing... and perhaps not only for them.

Idaho Idiots. Jared Hess's nostalgic concentration of nerdiness and awkwardness, which in my view lacks contrast. You can have Stimpy in twenty copies, but you will always be missing Ren. The cult status bypasses me, but I appreciate the inventive opening credits and Napoleon’s museum wardrobe (especially the t-shirts).

In a way, this movie was actually a phenomenon. After watching it for an hour and a half, a handful of absolutely, yes absolutely extraordinary characters are involved in such a banal and thin plot that it shouldn't really be called a plot at all, yet this is one of those movies that will stay with you for a long time, and you will remember how hard you laughed. Jon Heder in the title role is out of this world!

This is truly a film you won't come across just anywhere because it requires the writer and director to have a vision. Napoleon Dynamite really isn't for everyone. Some scenes are surprisingly good, especially in playing with awkwardness, but also in conveying the message that it doesn't matter who we are, we all share this place anyway.
