Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
... View MoreAfter playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
... View MoreAlthough I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
... View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
... View MoreI saw this film on Amazon and it was a total surprise. It's not like any other film I've seen. It really feels like the filmmaker tried to tell the teenagers stories with their own voice, not with their own. I wish more films were like this!
... View MoreA refreshing take on youth-hood in modern Britain which pictures human as they are without any prejudice. A humble rock song in the shape of a movie which can entertain a mass open-minded crowd without too much screaming or shouting! In my opinion the art of film making is about storytelling. Well, Alex Taylor has mastered the story of 21st century human onboard of our crazy spaceship. The Spaceship is like me and you;sometimes charming, sometimes cruel but everyone are welcome onboard. Life is too short but the teenagers' life seems to go on forever on the Spaceship moving from past to the future. Welcome onboard people.
... View MoreWatched this film without knowing much about it at the cinema, and was inspired by its fresh approach to filmmaking... It took me somewhere cool and mysterious... Been thinking about it for a while. Something quite David lynch about it... And easy on the eye and ear... I often find films nowadays about young people feel really exaggerated and somewhat unsettling, but this one has an authentic sensibility about it i really liked.... Something i haven't seen the cool linklater and larry clark 90s stuff... I liked it.
... View MoreCaught this as LFF the other week. It's pretty awful. I think it's meant to be some revelatory insight into teen culture but there's no depth to any of the characters - they're just mouthpieces for the director's pseudo-intellectual, pseudo-philosophical stream of conscience stuff. There's not much of a plot - a girl possibly gets abducted by aliens - but the film doesn't have the guts to pursue that with any real intelligence. The writer/director introduced the film and seemed to think that the film was "really weird" and we should "embrace the strangeness", but I think there's a difference between being cleverly strange like Aronofsky or Korine to create an emotional response, versus whatever this is where the filmmaker seems to think that going on about unicorns and rainbows equates to enough depth to sustain the audiences interest. It doesn't. I will say that it looks very nice, there's a sequence at a party with day-glow neon make-up that looks great - but looking great isn't enough. The actors are interesting and some of them have real presence, it's just a shame they're forced to speak the rubbish dialogue.
