    Maybe the only film I had to watch for the technical screenwriting portion of my degree that didn't bore me to tears. Given that I went in with the incredibly low bar of 'this lecturer is definitely low level racist and only gives us films to watch directed by pompous white men' I have to accept that most people don't have to spend the whole film questioning whether this was him trying to brainwash us or not.

    Genuinely a very good film, and if you could read my notes from the assignment you'd also agree -- technically incredibly strong also.

    Cillian Murphy, you are a wizard and I would sell my left kidney to cast you in every film ever made. Love a history film about smart skinny boys with some moral ambiguity and beautiful graphics thrown in for some sweet sweet spice.

    Was this film fundamentally exactly the same as every other travel based action movie? Yes. Will I forget the plot fast enough to enjoy this all again as if it’s for the first time I’ve ever watched it in six months time? Also yes. And might I say, I’m very excited for that day.

    Ouch... perfect vibe to curl up under roughly a thousand blankets and non-exist on the same sofa as your friends. I only briefly started existing again to get a cup of tea and a couple of biscuits before I carried on, in my sofa mush little puddle of silent tears.

    What a lovely lovely film. I also liked that you could tell which order the scenes were filmed in based on how freshly died her hair was. That was a fun little side quest.
