Village Voice
Without ever trivializing his characters' meager circumstances or resorting to the rags-to-riches fantasy of "Slumdog Millionaire," Meadows has made a lovely film about the ability of the imagination to offset the harshness of reality. Full Review

A small but important film about small but important lives, the latest drama from Shane Meadows further confirms that more people should know about this gifted director. Full Review

Like its star, the movie is too short and a little thin but just about perfect. Full Review

Variety
Basically a comedy but with typically Meadowsian dark edges, it forms an affectionate tribute to cross-cultural friendship and the rapidly changing landscape known as Somers Town. Full Review
