ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!
Console best movie i've ever seen.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
lafillelabas I like this movie. I've seen it twice now, and it's, for the most part, enjoyable. The scenery is great, the acting is adequate. Of the main characters, I thought Sophie Shaw, Tom Butcher and Gwyneth Powell were the best actors. The others kept reminding me that they were in a movie playing particular parts.There were some cringe-worthy things, though, like Carson Wells' (Jaelan Petrie) wardrobe and sometimes his demeanor, but I understand that's just part of his character. I just don't think it should be that distracting in a main character. However, I respect the effort the filmmakers made to have the main character be imperfect in some ways. I may not have minded as much if he'd been a better actor. (spoiler:) For example, in the scenes relating to his parents and the anguish he is supposed to feel, it felt pretty forced to me. (end spoiler) Overall, I like this movie, and since someone gave it to me as a gift recently, I'll definitely be watching it again. It's decent entertainment, and it wins extra points with me for not being full of inappropriate things.
jalapenoman I'm from Texas. I've lived all but about two years of my life in Texas or New Mexico. That guy on the screen isn't a cowboy and can't play a cowboy. That horse just don't buck! The plot is formulaic and you can see everything coming at you five minutes in advance. In fact, you could probably guess the ending just by reading a short synopsis. Nothing new here, it's all been done before.While this is not as bad as "Out of Step", it is as bad as the LDS version of "Pride and Prejudice" and does have some of the feel of an extended, two hour seminary video.I had hoped the quality made LDS cinema like "The Best Two Years" might start leading to other good stuff. I got really happy when "Saints and Soldiers" came out and begin to see it happening. Work like this, and other recent movies in the genre, have moved us back to square one again.
Bryant Anderson We have seen the movie four times and would like to go back again. It never gets old. We love the acting, the story line, the scenery and the plot. It has non-threatening LDS characters in the plot. I understand the actors except for Carson are not LDS and were not offend to play there parts. The script however, is not dominated by religion, but it is about relationships and the cultural challenge of being a ranch boy in London. It is fun to watch the romance unfold. We love to listen to the reaction of the audience to the humor. The London setting makes the movie delightful and interesting to view. The music written by Alan Hawkshaw is well done and his new arrangement of Oliva Newton John's original song "I Honestly Love You" is touching. Alan has written for the Rolling Stones and many other well know singing groups. His music adds a real professional touch through out the Movie. We would enthusiastically recommend the movie, but only if you want to have a fun wholesome and pleasant experience.
rudeweezle I recently saw "Piccadilly Cowboy" at the LDS Film Festival. I thought it was a good movie. The plot was amusing and the acting was quite impressive. One thing I truly loved about this film were all the interesting side characters such as Carson's jail mate, or the football fans in Scottland. I also very much appreciated not having my own religion crammed down my throat for two hours. Unlike most LDS films this film did not mock The LDS faith or try to preach about it the whole movie, though still having subtle religious messages and still kindly portraying some of the more humorous things about LDS life. The only negative things I have to say about the film are these: Make up and lighting were awful, All of the characters looked washed out, yellow, and shiny. and Carson's costumes and hair were not much better. Oh, and if its not to late I recommend changing the film's name...most American's haven't a clue what Piccadilly is. I think this is truly one of the better LDS films to come out in recent years.
