Three Day Millionaire

Brilliantly funny film and a lovely portrait of a very proud town. Lots of rising talent both on and off screen with the director Jack Spring, well worth a watch if you're from Grimsby or anywhere else.

Colin Mooney was great as he worked with a lot of unknown talent who I'm sure won't stay unknown for long.

Jack Spring is an up and coming director who has a bright future ahead of him!

It was nice to learn more about a town I personally don't have much knowledge of. This is a very fair representation of a lot of towns in England and the film gets this across well and at the same time makes us laugh, definitely watch!!!

Enjoyable flick but if you've seen an episode of Brassic on Sky then you've seen it before. Filled with similar characters- the nice but educationally challenged types, rogues with a heart, with the usual generic nick names Curly, Budgie etc. Still worth a watch for free on Netflix though. Good to see Grimsby as the focal point for all the antics rather than London or Manchester, and you get the right feeling of how tough times are lin these small fishing towns. Acting was of a decent quality and they managed to give enough back story characterisation for a 90 odd minute film, so recommended none the less.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this film. It's not my usual choice of film, but I was very pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed it.

The leading characters were rich and had interesting backstories. The actors really took me on a journey and I was completely invested in them.

Having not grown up in England, I found the concept of the Three Day Millionaires really fascinating and personally thought that many of the themes and social commentaries were relatable to most traditional English towns and villages.

I thought that the film had a really heartwarming and beautiful community spirit too. I absolutely loved the cinematography, director's style and music. Thank you Jack and the Three Day Millionaire cast and crew.

The film has humour that constantly creeps up on you, I live local to Grimsby and have spent some time around the fishing industry to know the characters are portrayed incredibly well. It contains enough depth to really get a feel for the personality of everyone involved. A contemporary insight into how the transition of life within the fishing industry within a town so dependant on it alone is a good enough reason to watch. To top it all off It's always refreshing to watch a film that doesn't go the exact way you expected it too. I got the pleasure of watching it at a q&a with some of the guys and girls involved which was a really interesting experience to get some of the behind the scenes understandings of what it took to put the movie together. Job well done to everyone involved.

A massively lacklustre and stereotypical attempt to copy what's been done far better in the past. Assume only the cast have rated it so far given marks of 10 (I mean seriously, according to the user reviews it's more accomplished than Ben Hur). It's a lazy 4 at the very best. Script and delivery isn't slick enough for what it's trying to achieve and the lead characters overact and don't have the style or gravitas to pull off their roles. Got bored after about 20 minutes.

Wouldn't recommend unless you know Grimsby and perhaps enjoy recognising landmarks or can link to the history in some way. Or love ships / fish.
