Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

ClaireBlennerhassett I haven't enjoyed a film as much as this in a very long while. Cleverly constructed, cleverly realised, cleverly nuanced, very well cast, acted, directed, and written.I admit it took me a little while to get in to it, but once I was in, I was totally hooked and completely swept away by the humour in particular, and found myself laughing uncontrollably many, many times. That's a rarity in this day and age, and it takes a special film to do that.This film is one such. It will be well worth your while!
Frank Allen Went to see The Callback Queen on a wet stormy night in Dublin but this Romantic Comedy provided the perfect tonic and made me forget my rain- soaked shirt. Although The Callback Queen is extremely funny the plot holds up a mirror to the charlatans, posers and unscrupulous exploiters who can operate in the film industry. The film is very stylish and bright and I would compliment the cinematography, bringing us on an open top bus tour of London's historic and fashionable spots. Amy-Joy Hastings gives a wonderful performance as Kate Loughlin. She plays a very winning role and this showing bodes well for her future screen career. Ger Ryan is hilarious and she has perfect comic timing. The Callback Queen is a new departure for Graham Cantwell. I enjoyed his debut feature Anton very much but The Callback Queen marks him out as an Irish Director to follow. His star is definitely in the ascendant. Now that the storm has abated and my clothes are dry The Callback Queen still has me laughing. Go see.
delpha7 I went to see Call Back Queen not really knowing what to expect. It was a nice surprise! It had some good laughs in it. I really enjoyed Amy-Joyce Hastings performance. Director Graham Cantwell and Amy-Joyce Hastings were at the movies and the audience were able to ask questions. It was great to hear some of the character development like one based on his grandmother. Questions were also received by Amy-Joyce Hastings. She was charming. I think she has a great future in film. This was Cantwell's first romantic company. I think he should do more. I like the name chosen for the film. The title caught my eye. That is why I ended up going to see it in the first place. Anyway..worth seeing.
