The actors looking at the camera directly is too much and not natural. I believe it takes a long time for this kind of shoot and does it aim for audience to be more emotionally attached to those acting ? I kinda of disagree and feel strange. Not good story though.

Painfull Crap
rossmcdee111 October 2021
A constipated film made by constipated talents.
So affected, unfunny and boring it makes the viewer yearn for a decent story, competent direction and likeable characters. Something unpretentious as an atidote to these Emperors new Clothes...
As a 30 minute experiment or tv thing it could be bearable , yet for a film it is an act of torture only a seasoned masochist could endure.
All the high marks are unbelievable unless connected to the film/film makers or unless from inexperienced viewers enchanted by novelty over substance?

Dark and atmospheric

Loved this film. Perfect English classic 3 people pushed forward into darker and darker story by events. Very engaging and unusual POV camera from original director of Peep Show. Great acting by the 3 main characters that seem lost and yet somehow guided by events.
Lovely sound track by Justin Adams amplifies the beautiful English landscape.
Plenty of drugs references - echoed Withnail and I in some respects.
Misses the mark

I went to a screening followed by Q&A with the Director and others, but didn't bother to stay for the Q&A -- after seeing the movie, I just wasn't interested to know more. It wasn't terrible, it just wasn't very good (hence my 6 out of 10 rating). The camerawork was often tediously jerky: probably intended to be "edgy", but instead just felt amateur. I enjoyed the wide shots evoking the flat East Anglian landscape, but there were too many road movie clichés (e.g. a succession of road signs to chart our heros' progress northwards). It felt like it could have been made in the 1960s or '70s. The frequent close-up POV to-camera shots were straight out of _Peep Show_ (which also has two male leads, pretty female sidekicks, internal monologues, and so on).

Brilliant road movie shot in POV with a twist. The principle actors are superb, the photography beautiful and the banging soundtrack really moves the film along nicely. Definitely a go see. Cult classic......why not?
A great unique film

Great movie with excellent filming and beautiful landscape shots of England. The movie has a great plot with an interesting injection of magic. The movie throughout is amusing but very real. The soundtrack also excellent - would highly recommend.
One for the history books.

Music road trip.
markmelvin-7916513 March 2019
Enjoyable music themed road trip with a talented cast.
A clever plot ensures that there are plenty of adventures to enjoy along the route.
Nice to see areas of England which rarely appear on film used in this production.
wonderful to see the Northumbrian countryside and the island of Lindesfarne.
Entertaining and great sound track...

Engaging characters and camera work....The plot was quirky and shied away from the formulaic 'obvious'. The landscapes of East Anglia and Northumberland were breathtaking.. The POV camera work in the car made the viewer feel like they were in the car too. Definitely worth the time to see.. Great sound track.. Watch out for Gemma.. Definitely a character that I would have liked to see more of...
Brilliant!

Dark, engaging, original & poetic
oscarjryanuk4 August 2019
The first EVER multiple POV feature film. That really is something. Hugely engaging film by Jeremy Wooding, who really takes you on the road trip journey through the eyes of our peculiar characters. You never really know what decisions these characters are going to make. Two friends that can't seem to live with each other but even more than that, they can't live without each other. The landscape shots of England only add to the poetic beauty of it all. It's certainly quite the surreal film, which also slips in some neatly placed puns and gags which only lead it to be more enjoyable. Soundtrack by Justin Adams fits so perfectly, enhancing the intense eerie feeling the films gives you through.
I have no doubt that this will become the cult classic it deserves to be.

Love it

As a concert and music fan of rock/metal I really loved this movie as its rare movies involves this kind of music, and seeing the band members on tour struggling I love to see this kind of lifestyle. I love the face point of view as the characters speaks like watching the other people and seeing them moving and turning their head to see what they see. It actually makes it interesting as I've never seen this type of way of filming. Loved to see the London parts of nature and building. Love the music they used too. Interesting to try to figure out about the story of the vinyl they took and all the bad things coming in to them.
Road movie
