Patrick Smash (11) was born with two stomachs, and hence the uncontrollable 'talent' to produce ungodly farts. This soon drives his own dad away and makes his social life hell. His only friend is classmate Alan A. Allen, a prodigy genius, who has no sense of smell. Even Alan's invention Thunderpants, which renders Patrick's farts harmless, can't make his space travel dream realistic. However after the invention of an adaptation which turns it into flying fuel, Alan is recruited by the US space center.
Patrick becomes word class tenor Sir John Osgood's secret high C farter. Their reunion is even more incredible.

'I like to think of him as the son I never had' 'I got more books for you dad' 'GET OUT OF HERE!' Paul Giamatti said this was one of the highlights of his career; it would be for me too if I was in a film about a kid flying a fart fuelled rocket into space. Seriously, have no idea how this got through to getting released. Pretty dark for a children's film: Patrick Smash commits manslaughter and kills a guy then gets sentenced the death penalty by firing squad. Israel doesn't even have that sort of death penalty.
Good re-watch though.
