Konterr Brilliant and touching

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

FlashCallahan Charles is in control of his life. He is about to finish 6th form college and start at Oxford. He is 19 and wants an 'older' woman before he turns 20. Enter the beautiful Rachel, and Charles puts his 'master-of-seduction' routines into top gear. Things however get complicated, Charles has a string of ex's and a weird brother-in-law. Rachel has a boyfriend named Deforest and Charles' father has a mistress...The first thing you notice about this film is that its a strange mix of Bright Lights, Big City, and Ferris Buellers Day Off. The second thing you notice is how quickly you fall into Charles world.And finally the third thing you realise is how shallow and pathetic Charles is, and yearn for more Jonathan Pryce. The thing is With the main character is the fact that Fletcher makes him come across as a spoilt brat, someone who may never have to do much work in his life, someone who gets everything for very little.But having never read the book, I don't know whether this was intentional, having a snivelling middle class squirt breaking the fourth wall and giving me utter spurious advice on the fairer sex.So when you start to despise the main character, the rest of the cast had better be great. And they are. Skye is wonderful as the titular character, and Pryce steals the show as Norman, the Neanderthal In Law.So all in all, its not bad, but the main character is one of those people you'd just like to punch in the face.

Gershom517 This is an excellent movie that is underrated. Performance by Ione Skye is OUTSTANDING. Not only is she beautiful and sexy, this lady is an excellent actress. I look forward to seeing more from her in the future. I highly recommend viewing this film. I am currently looking for a source to purchase it. I think you will be wanting to add it to your library. I know that I want it in mine. I do not recommend this movie for children or young teens. Excellent film for those who like to follow a story line that includes sex, passion, and emotional drama. Those who like a coming of age movie may like this one. Please read these reviews and then comment once you have seen this movie. I would like to read your comments too.

vlvetmorning98 The first film to be adapted from a Martin Amis novel, this cute film stars Dexter Fletcher as Charles Highway, a super-suave young man studying for his Oxford entrance exams. At a nightclub, he spots Rachel Noyce, played by Ione Skye, and he spends the majority of the film trying to pry her away from her beau. The main problem with this film is that Highway is played too much like Ferris Bueller-he even monologues directly to the camera. The novel's very bleak ending was toned down a bit, and the title is a little misleading, as all of his "female papers" are actually composed on a computer in the film. Jonathan Pryce is hilarious in his fleeting scenes.

Nocturne-3 After reading the description of this movie, I wasn't expecting much. Luckily, I was pleasantly surprised as it was quite charming. I recommend it for anyone who wants something light and cheery.
