Carter, desperate to get his life back on track, starts by trying to find his elusive ex-girlfriend, Kelly. ItÂ’s the 11 -month anniversary of their break up and now, more than ever, Carter feels that she is the key to restoring harmony to his life. But Kelly has changed her telephone number and clearly does not want to be found. A chance meeting with KellyÂ’s highly-charged brother Aaron Â– a B-list American actor Â– provides Carter with the opportunity he has been waiting for. But in return for KellyÂ’s number, Aaron demands a favour of his own which sees Carter sent on a wild goose chase around London, meeting some unlikely accomplices along the way. Little does he know that his stumbling attempts towards reconciliation will take him on quite a different journey. Could this be the opportunity Carter needs to find happiness and regain control of his life?

An unusual, ill-structured, unfunny FILM.

Terrible.. lacking charm and humor.

I can not quite believe HELLO CARTER made it to London Film Festival 2013 - The description in the festival book was cleverly written, it sold it to me, completely.

The plot follows: Carter, recently made redundant & homeless, well spoken boy is sofa hopping. The film then goes on this bizarre wild goose chase across London attempting to find his ex-girlfriend.

Sadly: The characters are not interesting or likable, the main protagonist: We never really care about.

The jokes are dead-pan and embarrassing. The film loses focus on the plot - It's an amateur effort - A complete waste of my time, couldn't wait for it to be over.
