9/10

Analogue brilliance in a synth pop age

OK, I hope you get the analogy. This movie is the equivalent of a brilliant musician, armed only with an acoustic guitar, walking onto the stage at a Spice Girls reunion concert. There are no special effects, no stars and no CGI.Just pure performance.

The acting is almost universally mesmerizing. Stand out performances from Bruce Hopkins, Neil (Nial?) Greenstock and Rajeev Varma. This is a gritty, realistic film that shows that it's possible to make great cinema without a big budget, and that its performance, narrative and development above all else (OK, editing should come first, but you get my point). Editing and direction deserves a special mention, these guys really know their craft. Downsides would be lighting (esp. bar scene) and the final climax is confusing on the first watch, but I'm being picky. Overall this deserves to be a world wide classic of minimal budget film-making.
