Reviews

Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie
Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
griffbuck I had a fantastic evening watching this film at the Warwickshire screening. The serious subject matter was enveloped by a fabulously witty script. Emotional and comedic performances were given throughout. Well worth watching. We're looking forward to it coming out on DVD. Excellent film, I sincerely hope it gets men to self-check for testicular cancer. The message should've been received - loud and clear.
cathyoates I didn't know quite what to expect of this film but was extremely impressed and engrossed in the film and it says a lot for the acting that I cared very much about what happened to them all. At the preview it was stated that "if it just saves one life" it will have been worth it and it is certain to achieve much more than that.
johnfrf A film made locally and with largely amateur actors. One would normally have only moderate expectations, but let me say that these can be largely set aside, such is the impact of and standards set by this film. It tackles a tricky subject (testicular cancer) with due seriousness, and yet the story is told with such a lightness of touch and a degree of good humour that it makes for easy and entertaining viewing. The performances are such that one can readily forget that one is watching amateur players. For the most part the playing is convincing, with only the odd minor role failing to convince. Chris Hudson and Elizabeth Joyce Morris in the central roles are outstanding in delivering a witty script by Geoff Saunders, and Darren Scott's direction is remarkable for one new to film-making.
Clarke Pitts A comedy about cancer might seem unappealing but this is a warm and charming story well told.The leading lady presents a star turn, if you're not moved by the scene in the car, there's something amiss.I hope this film gets the wider audience it deserves.
