Freaktana A Major Disappointment

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

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

astroian This film is probably not going to appeal to those who enjoy those trite, formulaic Hollywood type romance films. It's a small budget indie and it's nowhere near as bad as some reviewers state.There's a very British humour that's both witty and gentle, something that may be misconstrued by those not in the know. The acting is a bit patchy but overall these are minor flaws in what is actually a very reasonable effort.It does remind me of 40s and 50s British films, filled with slightly daft happenings that when taken as a whole weave a quite wonderful experience.I'm not going to give away any of the plot or touch on the characters except to say that it's a cracking little film well worth the time to watch if you enjoy slower paced film with some good laughs thrown in.As a person who grew up in an English village I was chuckling as many of the characters are quite close to real life people you do find in any English village. The English eccentric is still very much alive and kicking!

yogajillybean Tortoise in Love is a classic British RomCom. Set in a typically sleepy English village, the film centres around the manor house and tells the love story of Tom (the Gardener), Anya (the Au Pair) and the village that helps bring them together. And Tom needs all the help he can get. Sometimes the film is a little slow in pace, but the title gives that much away. One or two of the gags are cringe-worthy but more of them made me laugh out loud. Overall the film is charming and funny. It has a wonderful heart-warming and feel-good effect. I think it is perfect viewing for a lazy Sunday afternoon in front of the TV.

M Zarkani Well, the title of the movie kind of said it all ... I mean what would you expect from a movie called Tortoise in Love?! So, where do I begin my shredding? The acting perhaps?! To say that I've seen better acting in porn movies is an understatement. Tom Michelson, a little word of advice, pulling a surprised face for 84 minutes will not make you resemble as much as Hugh Grant's ugly little toe. Hideous acting to say the least! And I don't get all this hype about the story behind the movie and how it alone makes it a good movie. The story behind the movie is crap ... The acting of the people in the village is crap ... The actual storyline is crap ... Crap! Crap! Crap! I was coerced by my fiancé to tag along and do some work on my laptop while she watched the movie. I will tell you that, for 84 minutes I glared at the TV in absolute disbelief that in the year 2012 movies like that were still being produced. Waste of money! Waste of time! And an insult to an averagely IQed human being.

johnwest-4 This film is delightful and humorous. It is about people and their Relationships. Even the most beautiful people do not have an easy time When they are in love.The boy with the love of aircraft gives a splendid performance of a sad boy neglected by his father but supported by the estate workers.This is a gentle film and beautifully photographed. It is homage to the goodness of people, the ingeniousness of the rural community and so many things good about England that "commercial" filmmakers neglect to tell us about.It is a must for viewing by every rural film society and likely to Become a perennial favorite.
