Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
James Jay A true life fairy tale that explores what so many people experience, the odd couple in a new town wanting desperately to make friends and become accepted, but find themselves lured by the wicked side of those around them to do things they think they must do, or cannot do and the consequences that human beings can lead others into when they enjoy making them unhappy rather than choosing love and the unhappiness and and truths that this brings home. Remarkable debut for someone who had never directed on this scale before and a thought provoking movie everyone should see, especially parents and schoolchildren.
bellej-13318 .. Pin Cushion.. a coming of age film.. shocking in content & very emotional.. left me feeling angry.. feeling gutted.. & driving with tears in my eyes.. so many Iona's.. so many Keeley's.. so many loving mother's who don't quite fit in.. so very sad.. I saw the film on my own.. it's never bothered me.. I like my own company as much as others.. & I've never liked to restrict my life based on what others can & cant do.. even Cinderella dressed up & went to the ball by herself.. inspiring right there.. after watching the movie, I realised we need to empower all girls to have the strength to walk alone when needed.. to fully assert themselves when required.. to accept themselves, quirks & all.. & to reject manipulative behaviour from others.. whether from an adult or child.. very moved by this film.. I imagine it will hit cords everywhere x
ste_wood The Dop must be very talented on this with some great shots, as I said filmed very well, the sound was good, the actors did an awesome job with a great story, however I give it 6/10 because this film seemed to have no middle start and end we're good but I found myself looking at my watch half way through, I have seen a lot worse and hats off to anyone getting this far.
ciaofrancesca A story told with poetry and colours, about the love between a mother, her daughter and their efforts to fit-in, at the expense of valuing their own unique identity. A story of mean bullyism and peer pressure which remains cruel and hypocritical at any stage of life. A script that resonates well with our contemporary, conforming society.
