The Nan Movie (2022)
7/10
Uneven but far from terrible
16 May 2022
I love Catherine Tate and was a bit nervous of watching this due to the terrible reviews on here and in other media. However, I found this to be deeply moving in parts and laugh-out-loud in others. Apparently there were problems with the studio who wanted to cut back on the war-time flashbacks which, in my opinion, were the best bits and the acting from all in these scenes was brilliant. This led to hastily filmed present day scenes and ill-judged cartoon/animation segments. With the majority of these removed and more flashbacks, we may have had a more even film, which I believe was the director's original vision (leading to her taking her name off the credits). A shame sometimes that studios get involved. Just release it and let the audience decide. That's who movies are for, after all.
