Oh dear God

ZzzzzzzzZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. It's a nice effort but jeez dude you gotta grab people's attention. How old were you when you made this? There are so many topics to choose from. Not even my dog sat through this and he's stuffed (yes, I share hobbies with Norman Bates). If you're going to advertise this movie as a comedy at least have one laugh out loud scene. If you were going for satire, it should have been more transparent. It lacked structure- a story needs to have a beginning a middle and an end. This was all jumbled and I didn't know what was going on or where the story was headed. It was a nice idea but it wasn't executed like a professional. I wish you the best of luck in your future films and I sincerely wish you'll sort the lighting out- I was squinting! I had an awful headache afterward.

Trivia
The film was shot in London during the G20 summit of world leaders to discuss the economic meltdown. Anticipating the large protests and the security measures that would surround the capital, the filmmakers shot under the title of LONDON TOWN, as BRITAIN ISN'T WORKING would have raised a few alarm bells. Prior to shooting, the Transport for London got hold of the script and banned the production from shooting on trains or buses. They used a disused tube carriage for one interior to replace filming in the London Underground.
