    Proof the British can make a decent Road Movie

    A really pleasant surprise of a movie. As a gentle comedy it is a warm, pleasing journey, with some laugh-out-loud moments. What makes the film for me though, is the perfect chemistry between the leads and the brilliant set scenes with a cast of kooky support players - the garage scene is superb. There is also an excellent performance from Philip Jackson (Poirot). If you are going to stick your neck out for a film that isn't in the public eye then do give this one a try!

    Above the Clouds headed over the rainbow

    Saw the premiere of this film at Raindance Film Festival. Wonderful. Here's what I wrote then about it on Raindance Festival Day 5: Went raving mad about this sparkly, distinctly British "American road trip" movie. Fell in love with ingénue actress Naomi Morris. Gushed about this cinema treat being destined for wide release on the film's FB page. I promise: I had not been drinking. This movie is an elixir. Prepare to become intoxicated.

    Quirkily different

    Having heard some positive reviews I was quietly impressed with how the story progressed. Good characters and some good acting throughout. Very enjoyable. Not your run of the mill film and very enjoyable

    Road Trip With Literary Repartee

    Charming, witty road trip movie about family, friendship, and finding oneself. It begins with an unexpected discovery followed by an unexpected road trip with literary references. A teenager (Charlie) needs to find answers. Her passenger, Oz - not that one - but he could be, whom she wishes was 'less Dickensian in his appearance. He makes decisions by 'asking the Queen': He tosses a coin! And somehow this helps them reach their destination. Each one finds a home. The artist references and the description of 'creativity' are truly profound remarks. Sometimes you have to wait a long time to be surprised.

    Delightful Surprise!

    This film has it all! Solid & enjoyable cast, enjoyable scenery and not totally predictable! No blood and guts, no murders, no law enforcement drama but instead an engrossing road movie with interesting characters.

    It does have moments of ridiculous but that's ok, no movie is absolute perfection,,, except for Gone with the Wind and Forrest Gump ;) IMDB Why is there a 5 star rating? The reviews you have posted are 8's and better!
