was released in 1990 to mixed reviews, but was a success at the box office and at awards time. It picked up seven Academy Award nominations and won in three of the categories: Best Original Song, Best Makeup and Best Art Direction. A sequel was planned, but a controversy over the film rights ensued between Beatty and Tribune Media Services. The lawsuit was resolved in Beatty's favor in October 2013. However, no plans for a sequel or follow-up have been publicly disclosed.

I cannot think of the name of this for the life of me but I have to drive my kids somewhere now. So let me try to help whoever else is guessing: this is like a human being version of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and it's a comic book kind of thing.

In his Chicago Sun-Times review, Roger Ebert gave the film his highest four stars, calling it "a small film to treasure." He gave particular praise to writer-director Bill Forsyth for his abilities as a storyteller.

Nope...

On the aggregate web site Rotten Tomatoes, the film received a rare 100% positive rating from top critic reviews (based on 31 reviews), and an 88% positive rating from audience reviews (based on 6,916 reviews).[15]

Caz is correct! Local Hero it is! Bravo! Got it without the next clue, which was that Mark Knopfler wrote the music for the soundtrack. (One of my all time favorite movies...)
