Micransix Crappy film

BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

jacob Brawl The movie was hilarious I wish it was longer but at that point the only other twist for the movie would have been aliens. The Movie was quick and it got to the point with some turns. I personally didn't like "the brother" but he will grow on you. It was also good to see Charlie Cox play a new role compared to his dark daredevil the funny witty brit was great. I also liked the camera very much they would show some good angles not all the weird rotation stuff they do in other movies and TV shows it was great stuck angles that made you look at the movie and say hmm so thats what I shall be seeing. tbh most of this review is either repetitive or a filler im just tryna get 10 lines

Ben S I thought it was good.It included some generous doses of humour, charm and insight.The characters were interesting and Paul Schneider and Jodie Whittaker were excellent, as always.The baby was the star though!Well directed and beautifully shot. Some great scenes of London, too. Carter's battle to survive in the big city is one with which many of us can relate.All in all, I enjoyed it and felt that there was lots of potential on display here.

josehernon Catching up on a year of film and wanting to write a review of a British Film... after having the chance to view parts of a film that was invited to see as part of the London Film Festival, have decided to pick on film relatively close to my heart, about a character down on his luck living in London - step forward Hello Carter...Advertised as a comedy by LFF, if anything Hello Carter was not quite sure what genre it should be; although that is probably more a reflection on us viewers and our need to characterise things...it did feel like a stylish rom-com that was neither a romance nor a comedy... maybe that's what made it such a likable film, in that it couldn't be put in a suitable box. Although perhaps in turn that was the main flaw with the film... as it certainly felt that in the case of the script, of being a case of more a sum of its parts, than an overall rounded story.It's fair to say the basic premise of a wild goose chase around London was a bit fanciful and some of the coincidences a bit unlikely in this day and age - but when accepted the story was just that (fanciful) & the over-arching plot was probably meant as no more a vehicle for more subtle examinations of relationships and chance in key individual scenes, some poignant, others interspersed with good ole British humour (well that was my take)... then I think that the filmmakers generally hit the mark and made it work.The lead character perhaps suffered from being neither unlikeable nor lovable, whilst well-acted, Carter seemed safe and it would have been interesting to see a more volatile performance (or character) in that role...however there were a lot of other good performances and certainly whenever Jodie Whittaker's character appeared, the film seemed to have more edge...perhaps more of Hello Jenny over Carter wouldn't have gone a miss. Alongside good supporting performances, it was the subtle direction and especially good camera work that pulled the film together into a highly watchable British film. It was great to see London on film and so well filmed...one of the few low(er) budget British films that I would recommend others to see. Hope to see more of this ilk in future at the London Film Festival. A Solid 7/10 from me.

Natasha Saifolahi Terrible.. lacking charm and humor.I can not quite believe HELLO CARTER made it to London Film Festival 2013 - The description in the festival book was cleverly written, it sold it to me, completely. The plot follows: Carter, recently made redundant & homeless, well spoken boy is sofa hopping. The film then goes on this bizarre wild goose chase across London attempting to find his ex-girlfriend. Sadly: The characters are not interesting or likable, the main protagonist: We never really care about. The jokes are dead-pan and embarrassing. The film loses focus on the plot - It's an amateur effort - A complete waste of my time, couldn't wait for it to be over.
