The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

Casey Duggan

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Allison Davies

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
