Three Day Millionaire

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.

Witty comedy about local people in a local town. Top top film. The characters resembled such a relatable youthfulness that everyone can connect with, and their passion and pride for their home is something that everyone feels about where they're from. The plot was very easy to follow and the comedy balanced with the heightened level of seriousness was found in the perfect moments. The brotherhood between the three main characters was very evident and helped the audience get behind the boys from start to finish, with everyone feeling like they could see a bit of themselves in these boys. The direction and shooting of the film is also beautiful and showed Grimsby off to the world as more than the stereotypical way people think of it. Great film!

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.

A honest review from somebody who doesn't live in Grimsby, nor knows any of the cast.

It's pretty poor. I was sure it was going to be when I saw a load of first time reviewers giving it ten out of ten. Unfortunately I never learn!!

A group of mates are persuaded by Jonas Armstrong to rob a safe containing half a million pounds so that they can set up their own fishing trawler.

The first hour is pretty much 'will they or won't they take part'. Spoiler Alert.... They do! Once they do it's over and done with very quickly but the film continues.

The lad narrating the film plays his part well, the rest of the unknown actors will probably stay unknown.

The storyline sounds good, the film wasn't.

In the first minutes I saw where it goes and it means nowhere where I've never been before. All that mix of music and jump up through characters you have some projection as you are seeing a kind of Ritchie's failed work and in that mix of narrator and could say a smell of the ground you are in Boyle's preparing how should be, but still not possible to be done. Even, Ken Loach would see that someone is trying to copy him. Very weak plot can't improve a good acting, even if we have in its cast the names as Colm Meaney. The creator wanted to be realistic, but he created something a pretty much far away from it.
