GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Unlimitedia Sick Product of a Sick System
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
timfinch1950 Stunningly simple and powerful, it is one of my favorite movies. Hope and tragedy is presented side by side in a series of events in the life of the main character. The acting is great and you may not recognize any of the main characters, making the plot feel like it was written for every man, and woman. A great soundtrack complements the story and gives the movie a very pleasing and inspiring feel. The great appeal of this movie is that it promises for each of us, just like for Colin, that a better life may be just around the next corner, so don't be afraid to go looking. If this movie doesn't tug at your heartstrings, nothing will. Please do not miss it.
Liam Smith A Wonderful film. Even though it is little known, it is still totally worth watching! The shots are beautiful and quite different from other films. It makes it quite artistic and unique. Being half British, I felt it showed a side of England that is not usually known. The "quite" side. There are no special effects. There are no gun shots. There are no dazzling lights or loud noises. The film is simple. But that is what makes it so enjoyable. It is just a good story. It is one of my favorites, and I always like making new friends watch it. They usually always love it (or at least they don't tell me otherwise). It will have you cheering for "Colin" in the end!
andrew corr At first sight this seemed to be one of those cheapo, feature-length, depressing British films that I have grown accustomed to over the past few years.I could not have been further off the mark. The characters were lovable, even if they weren't very realistic. The acting was very natural, and each scene was shot beautifully.I had not seen the Hero's Journey narrative used in this context before, but it worked well. Aided by the original Folk music score by Kate Rusby and John McCusker, the beautiful montages, and the unexpected resolution, this film brought a few tears to my eyes, and made me feel content.
ard-1 I am the only one that hates seeing anyone North of London represented on screen by dim witted bear guzzling slobs that sit around all day in pubs and working mens clubs saying right lad, how's thee doing screwing each others best mates wifes! Complete stereotypical yarbles, dated as an episode of Coronation street from the seventies. Come on mister writer catch up the decades lad!
