...final package is debilitated by scattered characterization. The movie opens at the chaste, jejune scene of an Australian orphanage home to four self-named December Boys (for their birthdays) linked by the same distant desire of adoption by doting parents. When they are taken on holiday to a bucolic cove beside an unfamiliar seaside, they find themselves empowered—and sometimes divided—by the unbridled freedom. The pace is slow and episodic. The audience sees the predictable rifts arise between the boys­—Maps (Daniel Radcliffe), Misty (Lee Cormie), Sparks (Christian Byers), and Spit...

...They're everywhere, these not-so-merry miscreants - in Singapore, in Antarctica, on a desert island, in a secret pirate cove, riding mid-ocean waterfalls (very odd, that bit), exchanging broadsides while being whirled about in a maelstrom. It is very exhausting, and it makes no sense whatsoever.
