Ignore The Negative Reviews
18 October 2014 | by (Ireland) – See all my reviews

OK, firstly this Movie needed to have a massive budget for what is was trying to be but Noel Clarke made it anyway on a shoe string. I'm glad that he did.

What we get is a great storyline, great acting, great action and a great ending. What more could you want from A Movie ?

I'll agree that a bigger budget could have given us a better visual experience and more known actors, but what we got entertained and that's what Movies are all about.

I loved this Movie. I think Clarke did a great job with what he had to work with. Someone is going to give this guy a budget one day and what we will get will be incredible, but until then he will continue to please us with what he has to work with. Well done Noel Clarke. You always try to be different and original. One day they will give you a break and see you for the Talent that you are.

Until then please keep The Movies Coming.
