British Indie film Gold

Some great performances, really liked a lot of the settings and atmosphere, cool music too that was at times quirky. The actor who plays Kevin is very good, like to see more of him. Lots of other fine actors too. The prostitutes, the crazy guy Frank is in your face, and Earl and Oberon who seem to live in some parallel universe. The treatment of a care home in modern day Britain rang true for me having experience in that sector, and which intrigued me to watch. John Henry Westhead of Clerks fame directed this one and apparently he has a couple of more bigger budget movies coming soon?

Very Enjoyable Comedy on Mental Health and More

Very good film on 17 Albion Street, care home for adults with various mental health issues. I thought this film treated the subject with honesty and care. I've worked many years in care homes similar to 17 Albion Street and this film rings true to what it is like and it does it with humour. When one thinks of care homes, we often think of the elderly and it can sound depressing but this film is far from depressing. It is uplifting and a joy.

Absolute TRASH (only gave 1 star so I could leave a review)

I'm lazy AF and never leave movie feedback but this movie was such a piece of human waste that it motivated me to try and save as many poor souls from wasting precious time they will never get back. Useless toy review videos on YouTube are more entertaining.

Seriously

Indie is indie, it's a bad indie movie with all fake reviews and rating. Comedy it's ? To me , this is a high school movie production.

A film that punches above its weight

A film that makes you think outside the box, keeps you guessing, and is informative in its depictions of mental health. Kevin, one of the leads, reminded me of a modern day Randall P. McMurphy of Cuckoo's Nest fame, and Earl and Teddy were like comic book characters I've never seen before, and I mean that in a good way. I like that at the beginning of the film there were no credits that drag out the intro, which always seems a waste of time in films. Instead when we see text or the credits they are the descriptions of the main characters themselves, thought that was a nice touch, and kind of Goddardesque.
