You won't be disappointed!
... View MoreThere are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.
... View MoreIt’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.
... View MoreThe storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
... View MoreDavis and Bennet (Ed Gaughan and Andrew Buckley), are two physics working for "The Coronel". They take trains and walk through the English country side visiting "customers" and doing "skeleton" "removals" . Both have their own hidden secrets and pains even being best friends their communications is quite lacking.One day they must visit and eccentric woman (outstanding Paprika Steen) with a mute (perhaps autistic daughter) and a boy who is trying to find out the whereabouts of her husband disappeared eight years ago. A somewhat tender relationship develops between the woman and Bennet; but that start causing problems with Davis and even worse with their strict boss.It is not difficult to see where the movie is going; but in goes on in a very poetic and tender way; with characters who looks like losers or dimwits but end up being quite likable.The movie message is simple but is very well expressed; life must go on and we should not stop it.
... View MoreI was really surprised upon watching this film on the BBC. It was intriguing and highly worth a view. The casting was great, and considering the low budget, the filming was superb and really drew me in. The suspense really builds up in the film and so you really don't know what to expect as the film progresses. I loved the rapport between the two male leads. I think it is one of the best British films I have seen in years. It is a shame that it didn't reach a wider audience, although I guess the humour wouldn't be to everyone's taste. I'm going to recommend it to all my friends to check out. I hope the writer/director makes some more films.
... View MoreA good film, wilfully oblique but in a sort of Sapphire and Steel in the Peak District kind of way. Strange, but not annoying. Plus points: Tuppence Middleton and Paprika Steen, amusing nonsensical tommyrot about ghosts and stuffMinus points: Loses its way a bit, a little too arch in places.Overall I enjoyed it and would like to see more. I think it would make a good, offbeat TV drama with different mad nonsense stories each episode. I think it would be a good set up. Watch it if it's on, switch off your brain and relax. It isn't going to make sense so don't try and make it
... View MoreI came across this totally by accident and was very surprised there hadn't been more of a buzz about this great film. Best film I have seen for a long time and it must be one of the best ever British films. Creates a weirdly familiar alternative universe which we accept despite ourselves. Very original. Proof that you don't need a big budget or star names to create an interesting, amusing and very successful film. This deserves to be seen by a large audience. It isn't fast paced but the lack of exposition keeps it rolling along nicely. The acting is excellent and for a first time director this is amazingly well imagined and put together. I'm looking forward to the director's next effort.
