            Faintheart is a lighthearted comedy following a middle-aged man facing up to reality to win his wife back.  His passion in life is re-enacting battles with his merry band of friends the Bloody Broadswords.  Unfortunately he lets the Broadswords consume his life and his wife and son have finally had enough.  Realizing his mistake Richard sets himself the task of winning them back, though it may mean giving up what he holds dear. 

            Faintheart is a simple, but entertaining movie that I enjoyed.  Richard inspires sympathy despite his boneheaded ideas.  The comic relief is both amusing and endearing.  Faintheart deserves four stars.
