Dave Fishwick, the inspiration behind this movie did!

So given the premise of this and it's setting in Burnley don't expect a glitzy Hollywood style setting. Instead expect a heart warming Dave(id) v's Goliath battle of trying to open a community focused bank and the challenges and obstacles faced during such an audacious endeavour.

The acting is very natural and fluid and I really liked the slow burning chemistry between 2 of the main characters (Hugh and Alexandra).

Phoebe Dynevor who played Alexandra is so delightful to watch and really does light up the screen. I hope to see her in more in the future.

Joel Fry who played Hugh gave a very endearing performance, and I really did admire his unique style of acting (brave but smart casting there).

Rory Kinnear who played Dave really did his character justice and obviously did his research to remain faithful in portraying aspects of the personality of the creator of the Bank of Dave aka Burnley Savings and Loans Limited

So kudos to Netflix for bringing this great story to our screens.

Don't let done of the bad ratings detract you from being entertained for an hour or so. Yes there is a lot of gun violence but hey it's an action movie what do you expect. Props to Ryan, Chris, Ana and Bob and the characters they portrayed. Ryan aka six was very believable as a cold and well trained defender of his life and the life of the few people he cared about. Chris aka Lloyd was reassuringly self centered and subtly too full of himself, Ana oh Ana aka Dani is like a poem in the making. Bob aka Fitzroy slips into any role like a samurai sword cutting through silk.

Basically the acting fits the characters like a piston head fits a newly bored cylinder. Sorry about that metaphor, I was thinking of Ana again!

Anyway unless you're offended by anything and everything I thoroughly recommend you watch this film.
