Two for Joy

The cast, acting, script, etc are all top form The story is believable But, it's a miserable and boring film that fails to deliver greatness.

I'd expect this to air on BBC2 around midnight, midweek. It's a typical slice-of-life view that offers nothing new.

The previous comment that mentioned "Jellyfish" was bang on. That's a much better film.

If you want to see poor people then wait until the sun sets in any coastal town and you'll see this film in real life.

I'm a big fan of films focussing on social issues, and really enjoyed this. There's nothing to laugh at... it's pretty bleak in all honesty. It reminded me of caravaning holidays as a kid in the 70s and 80s.

The cast is great, but it's the kids that steal the show, Troy in particular is brilliant.

It's not for everyone, but give it a chance.

Loved it. Raw, real & emotional. I cried. It's sad, it's not a bundle of joy but it's real. The acting is fantastic. All the characters are great in their roles. I can't choose a lead. Give it a watch.

A brilliant performance from Samantha Morton in this early Shane Meadows-esque masterpiece.

An extraordinarily well told story. Beautifully filmed.Superbly acted. Compelling,full of empathy and free of polemic Simon Frith
