April

Wow , phenomenal casting , Firstly and Darren James King the writer and director actually played Tommy the nasty piece of work dealer in the film to ,, and Neal Ward who plays Myles was solid acting! The story was gritty and dark yet the narrative is so true showing the world as it can be for young girls and boys to and how they can be manipulated and groomed to be dragged into a dark place by criminals wanting to exploit them. This is a solid piece of film a more realistic British version of "Taken" and how easy it is and so important that young people are educated about these people. It left me feeling emotionally upset but that's how powerful the piece is .

It's gritty it's true to life it shows the reality of getting mixed up with these type of people and it hits hard . David Streames played Myles father to was amazing acting and their dynamic was raw and you actually hated the guy and could see where Myles was coming from how he got to where he is .

Highly recommend this exceptional piece of British film , it's also an insight to parents and young people out there to the dangers of the world .

Huge applause to Darren James King for creating this amazing piece and having the time to also play such a great role in it to as "Tommy" ! He pulled off something fantastic and watch out Tarantino as this man did it on such a low budget , I'd love to see what he can create with a massive budget !

Really didn't enjoy watching this. It's a film that thinks it has a powerful message, but not worth watching. The cast were all played awful, probably not helped by a sullen and boring script, their own stories are badly written, it makes you wish Amazon would review their policies on allowing tripe to be on their service.

Any chance of a refund...

Not usually a genre that I would casually sit down to watch but am glad that I did! Whilst uncomfortable to watch at times this hard hitting feature from director and writer Darren King is a relatable story of how interwoven crime and child grooming in this case is into our modern society and with what ease it can destroy lives and relationships. No big cinematic events just everyday stories of young people who are enticed into an initial glamorised life of crime before the reality and pay back becomes searingly clear. Brilliantly cast and powerful performances throughout. A hard hitting and memorable film that will remain with you.

Really enjoyed watching this. It's A film with a powerful message for everyone. Definitely worth watching. The cast were all played very well, their own stories are well written, it makes you want to follow them.

In Darren James King's April, Neal Ward is a force to be reckoned with. Whilst we do feel for him at times due to his history, the plot ensures this is very shortlived.

Kiera Lane plays the titular role of April, a sweet girl who you just want to steer in any direction other than to Myles. Lane provides an emotional performance that draws you further into the storyline.

King's writing manages to weave various characters into different storylines flawlessly as the film delves into the dark and disturbing reality of organised crime. It also shows the effects it has on the young people sucked into the lifestyle they should be sheltered from.

April is a great crime drama and is well worth a watch!
