The Stoic

I thought it was a good English made film, with good intentions all round, although I could agree with some of the comments I have read, it certainly doesn't deserve the poor ratings given by others. Good cast and decent acting.

Edgy dark and filmed in the uk, I would imagine with a small budget, so based on that it is a good Quality film, and worth a watch to support local actors directors, and all the people who work on these types of films.

I am a big fan of English films and thought it was just as good as some of the bigger budget films I have seen previously.

So give it a try and make your own minds up,

I really enjoyed this film and can't see how anyone can rate 1? What are you people watching? To redress the balance I feel I need to post a review as I don't want people to be put off.

It's probably been made on a relatively low budget.

It had me gripped from the start. The length of the film is also appealing for me as I hate the long drawn out films which go on for several hours.

I couldn't criticise the actors, a couple of big actors names in there too. For me, good job, well done.

I don't want to say too much without giving the plot away.

Watch it for yourself and give this film a chance.

Well what can I say I have been waiting for this film to come out and has been well worth the wait

It had me gripped from start to finish

I absolutely loved it

This film kept me captivated with its darkness and very good plot

The location, costumes , hair and makeup were just perfect

The performances from Jason Flemyng , Bruce Payne and Scott Wright were spectacular

It's 💯 a must watch I loved it and can not wait for the next one well done to everyone one involved just exceptional

Just beautifully executed not sure how it's managed to get a 1 star rating must of been watching a different film.

This is a good concept, but very poorly executed and acted. It's hard to understand the context at first, and the acting is just bad in most parts. JF is good, but obviously not affordable for any significant time. The Stoic could be a strong character, but the performance lacks any charisma and feels cardboard. It is trying to be edgy and dark, but the lead character performance just can't give that edge, feels too fake. The script / direction is too inconsistent and the main character is weak.

Don't waste your time. It's one of those movies that you want to get into, and you hope it does something to spark your interest, but it never does.

Well written and masterfully delivered. I really wish I could've seen it on the big screen.

Conceptually clever and unusual, which I always appreciate, it was one of those films that had me glued - partly intrigued, partly scared and wholly immersed in the drama.

A mostly impressive cast - Scott Wright is a superb lead.

I was very happy to know that there are still films, like this, being made in England and showcasing British film talent.

All in all, a very enjoyable watch although I would recommend not firing it up just before bedtime, as I mistakenly did!

See this film - it's a cracker!
