I Against I

Great cinematography, with a dark plot set to explode and confuse you along the way. A bit to much driving around in a few parts of the film but well thought, could have done with a nice car chase but hey budget was tight and it worked out okay in the end. Good acting from the cast with a well thought out plot. Looking forward to seeing the evolution of his next films. The dark theme contrasted with the back drops of London, which was nice to see. Some parts were a tad bit violent but added to the suspense. Unsure why there are some bad reviews as it was thoroughly enjoyed by all of us ignore the bad remarks and make another. Keep the cameras rolling.

Pretty good. Clearly super low budget but I enjoyed it, nice ending too.

Not being a professional critic I'm sure I missed some of the finer details but its a thriller that delivers on that front.

I thought the beginning was a bit slow but it picks up quite a bit after the first 20 minutes or so.

The acting was OK (I'm being generous) but forgivable considering how clear it is that corners had to be cut to make it to the end.

Overall, it was a decent rental that delivered what I expected. You wont be blown away with special affects and first class acting but I don't regret seeing it.

I have just watched it and must say that I was constantly excited. The actors, especially Kenny Doughty, make the whole movie worth watching it. Of course it is not a Hollywood one but it is from UK! What I like on this movie that it was filmed in London which makes it really authentic. Of course some scenes are quiet tough but the good actors in it makes it a good film. I wish my English was a little bit better so that I could describe in more details. If you want watch a thrilling movie that comes from the UK, also with UK actors then I would say you got to watch it.To summarize it: over popcorn and beer I can really recommend watching it.

Not nearly as good as the poster claims. A bit hit and miss throughout and barks more than bites. One of those films I would have completely forgotten about, if indeed I had not noted it down.

When asked why I enjoyed this film so much I would say its charmingly grim atmosphere. I am struck by its mood-feeling of solitude and claustrophobia and yet paradoxically it takes place in London, one of the biggest and the most populous cities in Europe.

Its absence of top Hollywood stars is even an advantage. We expect such actors to play particular roles, but here it's different - for precisely this reason you look at the movie without preconception and get on with enjoying the puzzle. With Isaac and Ian (Ingvar Eggert Sigurðsson and Kenny Doughty) you can sense the fear, not of undefeatable heroes or immortal supermen, just people pushed to the limit. At the same time, the behavior of these characters gives the hint that they are not what they appeared to be at the beginning. With his craggy look and a natural performance, Ingvar was especially convincing to me. Joseph (Mark Womack), with an expressive manner, brings even darker balance to the script.

Here's bit of sad news - I missed seeing London crowds in the main storyline. To my eye, insignificant details like chatting couples or .. even a stray dog, that would have created a little more realism. On the other hand wasteful scenes and people don't work for me with a predominantly grim plot. What I did find frustrating was the unexplained bits. Why for example did it seem that Sophia(Sónia Balacó) plays the role of an ingénue as well as someone very shy? What was the origin of hatred between Carmichael and his father? There are hints but not quite enough.

Although once into the film you get to know who is who, paradoxically there is also some sort of unpredictability, and the final scenes are a surprise. Not only that, there are other turning points in store and an unexpected twist. Genuinely, I against I is pretty atmospheric (the action takes place at night) and in all likelihood it is not a likely film for fans of blockbusters or so-called epic movies that include spectacular explosions, millions of casualties etc. In this story there are no winners in spite of appearances. If you want to look at London in a slightly different way than usual, try I against I .
