Jack Brown Genius is a hilariously entertaining movie that is fun to watch. Deep within the chambers of an old monastery lives Elmer (Stuart Devenie), a monk who dreams of discovering a way to fly in hopes of meeting his beloved creator.  But when the wing system he builds fails, he falls to his death and – having been judged a suicide – is doomed to an eternity in purgatory.

A thousand years later, Elmer’s spirit enters the mind of Jack Brown (Timothy Balme), a modern-day inventor with problems of his own.  Seems his boss is trying to pilfer his formula for a new source of power.  But the monk, determined to be released from his otherworldly prison, forces Jack to rebuild the winged machine and achieve Elmer’s dream of flight, rendering him free. Assisted by his friends Dennis (Martin Csokas) and Eileen (Nicola Murphy) – who is secretly in love with Jack – can Jack triumph where Elmer failed and carry both souls to new heights of success?

Never before seen in North America, Jack Brown Genius was co-written and executive produced by Academy Award-winner Peter Jackson (The Lord of the Ringstrilogy) through his studio WingNut Films, Ltd.  A sci-fi/fantasy gem, it’s available on DVD distributedby Lionsgate Entertainment.

You’ll want this movie in your library because it’s a unique breed that breathes laughter and spontaneous fun.  I can’t wait to see it again.
