Critic Reviews
-
Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK]
It's warmhearted, with evidence that Simpson will have more to offer in his next film.
-
Sukhdev Sandhu, Daily Telegraph
The drama veers towards afternoon-television territory at times, but this is likeable, honest fare.
-
Neil Smith, Total Film
Canny enough to stand comparison with coming-of-age Brit-flicks like SoulBoy and Cemetery Junction.
