Directing style made it feel like a soap. Also the sound engineer got the music levels very off, sometimes annoyingly dominating dialogue. Technical aside, it's a passable storyline, the acting is ok if a little melodramatic.
I completely enjoyed this film as it just goes to show how you can devastate lives sometime without realising your actions. It also shows that two wrongs don't make a right and how feeling true love for someone can make you feel that other things are more insignificant. These things happen in real life and it was good that the subject has been approached
This film deals with an interesting dynamic, but it is poorly produced. The dialogue is barely audible at times and the music sound track used is probably the most annoying ever. The acting is very variable, overacted at times a bit like a daytime soap opera. The camera work is shaky and at times one wonders if a hand held iPhone was used for some of the scenes. Heads get cut off, and the shaky images are nausea inducing. There are some scenes that add very little to the main story and could easily have been omitted. The ending seems a bit too tidy, and appears as if it were important to the Director/writer to have a happy ending, no matter if it made sense or not!
In theory this could have made for quite an intriguing story of cheating and naughtiness. Instead, it turned out to be a really disappointing melodrama showcasing the mediocre acting talents of a few handsome men and the writing of someone who had the vision for the story, but no real idea how to turn it into anything particularly compelling. It's all about the young and attractive dancer "David" (Jonny Labey) who is secretly having an affair with his brother-in-law "Jules" (Daniel Brocklebank). It's a bit tempestuous and after a row, the younger man seeks comfort in the arms of "Sam" (Craig Stein) but that just causes even more ructions and you can now see just what's going to happen, and anticipate the fall out that is looming large for all concerned. So much more could have been done to develop the characters; the sex scenes are ridiculously sterile and there is just way too much petulant dialogue making the whole thing feel much longer than just ninety minutes. It's gay theme gives it a slightly distinctive edge, but otherwise this is forgettable stuff, sorry.
Came across this film through social media and was interested to see soap actors in a feature film. To be honest I didn't have much expectation as a lot of the reviews had said this was typical soap plot lines but in my opinion the film tackles real issues and the cast delivered the story exceptionally well. Laura Ainsworth who plays Stacey was hilarious, she played the character so well. Suzanne Collins who I loved in Brookside was also brilliant.
This film is set in Liverpool and was good to see a non London setting. Would Defo recommend this for soap fans! Incredible to think that this was made for less than £20k. Will be hoping to see more from the director!
