Purely Joyful Movie!

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

A gripping thriller that describes the slow loss of control of a man over his life during a short space of time, as he grieves for his dead son and a chance encounter with a local gang member.I went into the cinema to watch this with little knowledge or fore-warning of how demanding this would; the emotion, the drama, the violence.Thoroughly watchable and fascinating, this film takes you on a roller-coaster of London and the characters that inhabit the urban landscape.A wonderful piece of debut film from Blunt Pictures and Producer Colette Delaney Smith, this has won many awards - and rightly so! I look forward with much anticipation to their follow up work.

A potent and poignant first feature by director Simon Blake and a memorable performance from Tom Carver (played by Aiden Gillen). Gripping from the start 'Still' shows us the fortunes and most unhappy malice that plagues this mans life. There's a real connection to the script and no character is left behind. Strong performances from the leading cast who lay bare moments of tension and emotion. Searching the dark streets of London, there is some brilliant cinematography and acting. Reminiscent Of Taxi Driver's Travis Bickle both Tom Carver and Ed's (Jonathan Slinger) catchy performances draw you into the reality of the victim turned vigilante. 'Still' portrays the suffering of the protagonist, in a very real world view, his life on culluloid shares his powerlessness and frustration that keeps you in the film till the end.

'Still' is a must see film written and directed by Simon Blake. It tells of a man called Tom Carver played by Aiden Gillen (Game of Thrones, Queer as Folk) whose life spirals downwards into a living hell after his only son is killed and a teenage gang persecute him with some very nasty consequences. The actors are well cast and the performances are first rate. The atmospheric cinematography from Andy Parsons perfectly captures the streets of North London aided by a beautiful, haunting soundtrack.Gillen has given several excellent performances in his career but in 'Still' he is definitely at the top of his game in a multi-layered, powerhouse performance; childlike, selfish, irresponsible but try to sympathise with him as he deals with fallout of every parent's worst nightmare.If you love realistic acting, strong dialogue and energetic direction then you have got to see 'Still'; you won't be disappointed!!

As I am a big fan of Ken Loach films, I found Still to be in the spirit of this sort of 'genre'. I was gripped by the performances and really enjoyed watching the actors. The atmosphere and tempo worked for me. I liked the social aspect of the film. The setting of the film was 'real' and did not have some unpretentious 'Hollywood' 3D effects! What a relief!! So I am always looking for a movie that gives real life depiction of social reality and this film did that. i want to see films that show my life or other peoples lives. How the system in place affects our lives externally and also our inner worlds. Good job! I will definitely recommend this film to my friends.
