Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

michael0859 This was a good movie. The characters were well developed.I think that the stereotypical gangster thug guys were a bit on the strong side and until I watched the commentary I did not know what was supposed to be happening at the moment that keyman is walking down the street and he begins looking around and up and down.Finally, the ending, I thought should probably have had him start the fire on purpose rather than accidentally. I could not tell that he was lying there waiting to die. I thought that he was just asleep and didn't know about the fire.And popeye...very interesting character...good choice with Tom Wright.

nugrace This film is so amazing because every parent has found themselves in such a situation - maybe not to that extreme - but one that made us think....what if I??????? There is nothing more horrifying and these characters were believable. Dan - you are very brave to bring your personal experience to the screen. Tom Wright is funny - and sad - at the same time. Unfortunately there are "popeyes" in every city and we simply choose not to see them. This film highlights this very sad but very real issue and allows us to humanize these homeless lost souls and perhaps look at them a bit differently the next time we drive under a bridge that may be their home.

tribblelyn The Keyman is a sad tale. A tale of loss and death and overwhelming guilt. Following the accidental horrific death of his baby from effectively being roasted alive in a locked car, our main character suffers a breakdown that drives him from his home and onto the streets. He is tortured by what has happened and driven with a passion to find the missing key. The acting is first rate. Casting Adam Baldwin in the lead was a stroke of genius. You find yourself taken along on this journey, sympathising with the lead character. You want him to succeed in his quest, you need him to succeed. The sadness is that this type of accidental death does occur. Why? Because people just don't stop to think. Have a box of tissues ready and to hand because you will weep when you watch this very moving and poignant film.

Leafan The Keyman is a triumph in independent film-making. It manages to keep your attention from start to finish without losing sight of the bigger picture.The performances are top notch from the three main characters, with my special praise going to Adam Baldwin and Tom Wright, who really stand out.The film never felt overly long because the pacing seems to have been timed in Switzerland!Sure the film, like every other, has it flaws. The character that Ellen Locy plays maybe could have used something more and you feel that Tom Wright's Popeye may at any moment come out with "I ain't getting' on no plane fool!", but these things pale into the background when faced with the films question of what would happen to you if a similar tragedy had happened.And, you know that every has that one scene that you'll remember it for. Well here it simply has to be Adam Baldwin's performance when we finally see what happened to his baby in flashback and his present day "redemption" if you will. Stunning.
