Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

bazt-93964 Scouser David Morrrisey has done what everyone from the city eventually does - makes a movie there. And why not, it has lots of character and is very photogenic. I especially liked the sequence on my local beach (New Brighton). A gently, quirky little effort, well worth a squint. Hope to see more of Morrisey in a director's role in the future.

Mike Casey Wonderful little gem of a film, shame it was show on BBC2 at 1:15 am on Saturday morning it deserves to be on at prime time viewing I managed to catch it on BBC iplayer. Nicely paced British film, makes a refreshing change from all those "gung ho" all super fast action American films. I hope David Morrissey gets the funding to do more films of this quality. Very well written and acted by James Borough and the beautiful Helen Elizebeth. Helen Elzabeth should be watched as I think she has the talent to go far. I can not recommend this film to highly, watch it if you get the chance I don't think you will be disappointed. Apart from that I can't really add any more to this than has already been said.

beresfordjd This is a little gem of a movie. It's simple and unassuming but very effective for that very fact. the central performances do not miss a note and the viewer really becomes involved in their relationship. It is a triumph of the "less is more" school of film-making. David Morrissey has every right to be proud of what he has done with this production. It has as its background the city of Liverpool, for which the director shows great affection. The central actors also had a hand in writing and screenplay and I believe that is why it feels so real and believable. If you catch it as I did (i saw it today, having recorded it from TV a few days ago) not expecting to become so absorbed by it -you will just love it . Not only that the soundtrack is great and includes a song by one of my favourite bands-Fairport Convention-the classic lineup. A pity about the unresolved ending but one can add one's own.

grahame12 This was David Morrissey's first venture into screen writing and he has created a delightful homage to his hometown. It is a very gentle story with a very simple plot about relationships. I feel he was on a winner with the original story by the gorgeous Helen Elizabeth who also starred in the piece. There isn't any CGI or heavy action just a delightful character driven drama. If you come from the North West like me it is a sure fire winner. It is a pity that small films like this don't get more publicity - it has just been given very small billing in the Radio Times and shown at 11.45 pm on Sunday night! - what a shame. I hope that Morrissey can now generate backing for another go and especially that we can see more of Helen Elizabeth.
