I really can't understand cynics. Whilst this one will never be as revered as the Bill Forsyth classic "Gregory's Girl", it more than deserve's it's own place in Scottish cinema's finer moments. Beautiful cinematography shot in and around Glasgow in a way that's almost unrecognisable, with lead characters who command every scene they're in (The delicious Karen Gillan a real star in waiting) I can't understand why anyone could find anything negative to report on this movie, unless of course they turned up with something sharp stuck firmly between their rear cheeks. Of course when you're working with a small budget, you're restricted to a degree in a way that the Hollywood romcoms of the like they churn out regular, featuring this weeks Aniston or Rudd don't have to put up with. So to produce superior, fresh, well written entertainment (albeit, not too taxing on the brain) with the tools available, I can only commend. Anyone who sees it and says different, really should question why they went in the first place.
score 9/10
