Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
lafillelabas I like this movie. I've seen it twice now, and it's, for the most part, enjoyable. The scenery is great, the acting is adequate. Of the main characters, I thought Sophie Shaw, Tom Butcher and Gwyneth Powell were the best actors. The others kept reminding me that they were in a movie playing particular parts.There were some cringe-worthy things, though, like Carson Wells' (Jaelan Petrie) wardrobe and sometimes his demeanor, but I understand that's just part of his character. I just don't think it should be that distracting in a main character. However, I respect the effort the filmmakers made to have the main character be imperfect in some ways. I may not have minded as much if he'd been a better actor. (spoiler:) For example, in the scenes relating to his parents and the anguish he is supposed to feel, it felt pretty forced to me. (end spoiler) Overall, I like this movie, and since someone gave it to me as a gift recently, I'll definitely be watching it again. It's decent entertainment, and it wins extra points with me for not being full of inappropriate things.
evgraf My hat is truly off to anyone who has the commitment to get off of the couch and actually make a movie. It is an enormous undertaking. But the gushing reviews listed elsewhere were so contrary to my own experience that I felt compelled to offer another point of view. This film seemed to appear in the newspaper listings with no publicity so I researched it in advance on IMDb. The background information pointed clearly toward "Mormon cinema". The problem with the genre is that it leans on the inside joke and preaches to the choir to the exclusion of the broader audience. The LDS references were frequent and heavy-handed. To my ear, the main character's accent sounds more like Alabama than Montana. And how could anyone not know after even the most superficial first-date small talk that he was getting involved with his boss's grand-daughter? On the technical side there was enjoyable urban and rural photography of Britain but there were also several very over-exposed sun-bleached shots. The soundtrack reminded me too much of a soap opera Wurlitzer.
Bryant Anderson We have seen the movie four times and would like to go back again. It never gets old. We love the acting, the story line, the scenery and the plot. It has non-threatening LDS characters in the plot. I understand the actors except for Carson are not LDS and were not offend to play there parts. The script however, is not dominated by religion, but it is about relationships and the cultural challenge of being a ranch boy in London. It is fun to watch the romance unfold. We love to listen to the reaction of the audience to the humor. The London setting makes the movie delightful and interesting to view. The music written by Alan Hawkshaw is well done and his new arrangement of Oliva Newton John's original song "I Honestly Love You" is touching. Alan has written for the Rolling Stones and many other well know singing groups. His music adds a real professional touch through out the Movie. We would enthusiastically recommend the movie, but only if you want to have a fun wholesome and pleasant experience.
rudeweezle I recently saw "Piccadilly Cowboy" at the LDS Film Festival. I thought it was a good movie. The plot was amusing and the acting was quite impressive. One thing I truly loved about this film were all the interesting side characters such as Carson's jail mate, or the football fans in Scottland. I also very much appreciated not having my own religion crammed down my throat for two hours. Unlike most LDS films this film did not mock The LDS faith or try to preach about it the whole movie, though still having subtle religious messages and still kindly portraying some of the more humorous things about LDS life. The only negative things I have to say about the film are these: Make up and lighting were awful, All of the characters looked washed out, yellow, and shiny. and Carson's costumes and hair were not much better. Oh, and if its not to late I recommend changing the film's name...most American's haven't a clue what Piccadilly is. I think this is truly one of the better LDS films to come out in recent years.
