    Cringe cringe cringe

    Total and utter trash.

    Camera work was hilarious, I'm not sure if there was a scriptwriter, acting was not acting.

    Best way to have fun watching this is by playing idiot bingo, write down 40 words - phrases or slang terms that you've heard from the great uneducated, and Mark them off during this dross film. I won after 5 minutes with "bruv fam yegetme innit blud brapbrap yafeelme Mandem feds trippin pussyole feel-ya"

    Seriously do not bother.

    Utter utter rubbish

    Tv his film is utter rubbish. The camera work is like a 10 year old with a phone the story line is very anti white/police and the film is extremely short.....don't waste your time with junk.

    Confused

    What I saw was a white girl objectifying a young black man and in her final edit, portrayed him with all the usual racial stereotypes when in fact he had presented himself in quite the opposite way from the beginning of their relationship. Couldn't finish it so there may have been some redeeming ending to the film but after an hour of fairly flat narrative with virtually no dialogue, it was difficult to stay interested.

    Not horrible at all, had a wonderful evening

    Great performances all around, especially from the lead actor! For a first feature film, the quality of images is stunning : the story could have been somewhat tighter (the film felt a little bit short) but it is nonetheless a project showing a lot of potential from the people involved in it.

    Ola Orebiyi gonna do big big things.

    Pretty breathless stuff. Amazing performances, they unearthed a few gems here with the casting.

    Story hit pretty hard and was interesting look at the cost of content.

    Some man won't get it, but some man be dumb.
