Good English comedy-drama.
Light, whimsical, subtle and understated - i.e. a typical good English comedy-drama! Decent, mostly character-driven plot, though threatens to unravel near the end.
Solid performance by the stunningly beautiful Gemma Arterton in the lead role. Well supported by Luke Evans, Roger Allam, Dominic Cooper and Tamsin Greig.
Despite all these good performances, the show is stolen by 18-year old Jessica Barden. Her over-the-top, kooky, intense performance as the seemingly-deranged schoolgirl Jody is screamingly funny, and keeps the movie moving.
