A great film about people getting older that is very dialogue driven with good acting and a great story. The story is very simple but entertaining.

Don't get me wrong - it has its moments. And I do appreciate the acting of both Liesha Ward Knox and Astra McLaren, however - Guy, buddy, just.. don't.

I quite liked the story, it is universal, more relatable that i thought it would be, and it is - I dare to say - important. However. Guy - this part is for you: the most annoying and hurting thing is that your eyes never seem to be there, it is just too off. Think about it. Do write another movie, jtry putting someone else in a spot. You'll be fine without doing everything yourself. And the movie will be better.

If you got past your 20s, and lived while you were in them, this is a relatable trip through all of the good and the bad... and most importantly it's real.

Witty writing, excellent performances, a clear vision in every aspect - this is indie film at its absolute best.

Older is a beautifully shot indie rom-com with very real and relatable characters. On-camera chemistry works well and the film manages to maintain a good balance between the sweet romantic moments and the deeper dramatic undertones. Well done overall.

90% of the reviews are obviously written by lovers of New Zealand or worked on the movie. The script is average and the acting is awful. Liked the concept, but the execution was not very good.

I really enjoyed this movie. It started out kind of slow, but I related to the main character as a film school graduate unsure of what to do next in life.

"What do you do when your dream comes true and nothing happens?"

The story had some great moments like this quote. It was sweet and genuine which is what kept me watching. Really strong for a small budget independent film. If you like romantic comedies, comedy/dramas, character driven movies, coming of age stories, or independent films, you'll really enjoy this. New Zealand filmmaker Guy Pigden is one to watch!

Just another dumb movie about this generation who are confused and looking for love in sex or watever.

"Older" is part drama, part romance, but most importantly it is a slice of life movie that feels authentic. The movie is well shot- it looks beautiful, the pacing is good, and the cast is very likable. We follow Alex, who is torn between the girl of his dreams and an old high school friend he has not seen in years. We have all had experiences where we have wanted something so badly, but maybe, just maybe it wasn't the best thing for us. "Older" plays with that theme in a way that feels real and relatable. I recommend giving it a watch.

This is the worst movie that I have seen in a while. I think that all the 9/10 ratings are from friends or relatives of the actors...

I watched it with my partner last week and we both enjoyed it. We've even started reciting lines from the film to each other as an inside joke.

Bought the special edition on Vimeo so looking forward to cracking into the special features. You've got to love a director's commentary track!

Wow, emotionally impactful, well edited and beautiful to look at. This movie really sucked me in. Great relationship drama and commentary on adulting. Well acted and directed. Makes me want to move to New Zealand! Kudos all around.

I really enjoyed watching "Older". It´s about relationships and what to do when you get to a certain age. If you are at an age where you can relate to Alex, you will definitely enjoy the movie.

Aside from that, I think the crew does a really good job. Guy Pigden writes, directs and plays the protagonist. That´s 3 though jobs to do and the movie delivers.

Well done!

Almost like it's the real-life story of the director/lead actor. It's all in it, the comedy, drama, love, happiness and the inspiration that drives it. The mix of emotions will make you stare on your ceiling for hours.

Older is a good film with a great cast. You really become invested in the story and care about these characters. I also enjoyed the adult nature of the relationships, this film deals with sex in a frank and humorous way. Older is well worth your time!!

Just watched this on Amazon Prime. I'm not gonna lie... After hearing about this film for a few years, I was a bit worried I wouldn't like it. Well I thoroughly enjoyed it, so much so that I had to go through this rigmarole of signing up here to post this review.

A really well written film. Dialogue is often a big let down for me, but this was great. Believable. Real. A bit of a slow start but it picks up in a big way. I think the trailer fails to adequately sell how good the film actually is which is one of the reasons we put off watching it until tonight.

Happy to finally see what I've been hearing about for so long! I would absolutely recommend this film to friends. A romdramedy with substance.

I love romantic comedies and this film did not disappoint. Guy Pigden directed and acted in this very relatable rom-com. Alex struggles between two women and his yearning for how love should feel. This is a very well acted and written film. Shot beautifully in Aukland and London. I highly recommend this film.

Such a meaningful movie!! Especially if struggling with being a "young-adult". You can relate to almost EVERY character, despite their very different situations. All the questions, fears and challenges that haunt us everyday, are depicted so naturally but still so profoundly in every scene and dialogue. And the glimmer of hope about our whole existence that swiftly slips by is just... exquisite (and truly necessary in practical terms). Because there HAS TO BE! And if there is not... "can't hurt to enjoy the illusion". Do watch it!

Great Movie. Great Storyline. Great Actors. Great Acting. Definitely gained a fan. Keep up the good work. Can't wait for the next project.

If you need a break from 2020--Older is the perfect choice! Older is honest, intimate, funny, engaging, heartfelt, realistic--I could go on and on! I'm not a huge of rom coms generally, but Older was a delightful surprise. Fantastic work by the cast and crew, stunning cinematography, editing, and design make Guy Pigden a filmmaker to watch!

Started to watch this movie not known what to expect but from the onset it pulls you in to the main characters and there decisions they make during there relationships a movie that will play with your emotions and a ending that will pull at your heart strings

Guy Pigden, director of I Survived a Zombie Apocalypse and web-series, Immi The Vegan, creates a well crafted, beautifully shot indie love story from the shores of Aotearoa. Shot on location in Auckland and London, Older follows the story of Alex ( deftly played by Guy Pigden) as he struggles with growing up and choosing between mercurial Stephanie ( played by the beautiful Astra McLaren) or charming Jenny ( played by the dazzling, funny and adorable Liesha Ward Knox). The dialogue is witty and well written and its a pleasure to see a romantic dramedy that takes places in New Zealand! Check this film out!

This film has a lot to recommend it. It is beautifully shot, the locations are gorgeous & well used, the lighting is fantastic, but, most importantly, Liesha Ward Knox steals the show in the role of Jenny. Her captivating smile, soulful presence, & sheer talent delights the viewer every time she is on screen. The film is very enjoyable to watch, even during the uncomfortable parts of dealing with life's disappointments.

Older may be a small film but it stands up in the world of indie romances. At its heart Older is a film for those of us who are scared of growing up. Beautifully shot on location in New Zealand the film contains a wealth of undiscovered talent in its cast and writer/director/lead Guy Pigden makes juggling three roles in front of and behind the camera look easy. Another great film for Pigville Productions definitely worth a watch.

A refreshing & realistic take on a common topic. Must watch. Kudos to the director.
