One of the things I’ve been enjoying most about living in Kansas City is the bevy of older films that are brought back to theaters for special engagements.

This past weekend the only new film that opened in Hays was “The Identical,” which is apparently about twin brothers separated at birth, one of whom becomes Elvis (or a character based on Elvis) and the other becomes an Elvis impersonator. These separated twins apparently feel some type of mysterious bond in what happens to be a vaguely Christian-themed movie.

That just sounds awful. “The Identical” opened at 12th place for the weekend box office with an absolutely abysmal score of 4 percent on RottenTomatoes.com, which means that only 4 percent of critics gave it a positive review.

Conversely, “Forrest Gump” reopened in theaters this weekend for its 20th anniversary. “Forrest Gump” is one of the all-time greats. I will continue to see the new movies that come out each weekend, but it was far too difficult to choose “The Identical” over “Forrest Gump.”
