Superb. Andrew Garfield does a great job as the principal actor, Nicely paced drama. However, the British accents are often too thick for my American ears - not a problem if you have subtitles. Copy t... he DVD and convert to AVI file, then convert this to DVD adding English subtitles (I use subs from subscene.com), for American viewers Full Review

Mullen and Garfield anchor the film. Mullen, that splendid Scottish actor ("My Name Is Joe") and Garfield, 24, with his boyish face and friendly grin.Full Review
