    [Highly rated reviewer]

    I saw this in a late night screening last night, what a treat!

    Shot in black and white and with a cast of 4 main characters 2 of which take up most of the screen time, this story manages to make you laugh, cry and think all in 100 mins .

    The plot as you would no doubt know by now is about a lonely misfit who after 6 years of being single and under the pressure of his flatmate puts an ad of the internet to find someone special to kiss at midnight on New Years eve. What you expect happens, he meets a girls shes a living nightmare with more issues than himself but of course they end up falling for each other, what the film does however is use these to their advantage and throw in improv and (really) great dialogue, and has quite possibly the crudest but funniest opening scene in recent memory.

    Rent it now!

  • Sweet but irritating

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    This is a sweet film: a little romance grounded in reality. Worth persevering if you can handle the VERY irritating lead female. Seriously annoying - she almost ruined the film with her very annoying, teenage-sounding, whiny voice.

    Firstly I have to say how much I loved the fact that it is was in black and white. It really added to the romanticism of the whole thing. I really liked the main character, Wilson. I felt myself laughing and crying along with him through out the film. Scoot Mcnairy is absolutely superb. This film is absoutely hilarious, emotional and I really felt myself drawn in to everything that was happening.

  • Don't watch if you're over 20

    Don't watch if you're over 20. Actually, it started off OK until the highly-highly annoying girl character came on the scene- she just irritated me so much that I couldn't continue to watch.

    Scott McNairy is becoming somewhat of a great actor and he was very good in this - it reminded me of a Woody Allen film and was atmpospheric and well made.

  • Sweet film

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    The film addresses loneliness and relationship in a nice and sweet way. I liked also that the actors and actresses are not the typical good-looking-perfect-doll type, although they all have their charm. This 'average people' aspect reminds me of French films, which is another plus in my view.
