Had a heck of a closing. I'd say the last ten minutes or so were a really great example of how to end a film.

Overrated. Great directing skills, poor film. And the music is REALLY annoyingly lame !

Great, great film. Such a great surprise. Acting is amazing, Katie Jarvis stunning, the story and its structure were brilliant, as the cinematography. And I'm still utterly impressed by the incredible sound design.

A modern masterpiece. The cinematography took my fucking breath away and the acting was perfect (can Fassbender do no wrong?!). Quite possibly one of my new favorite films.

A tale of a conflicted daughter that finds more on her troubled mother's new boyfriend that was not expected. Aside from her dreams to become b-girl dancer there's her coming-of-age. A movie with sensitivity, wise and a touch for the heart. Don't miss this!

Even though the story becomes predictable, it's still a great film. From the way the music is used, to the pacing of the story and the great performances from the actors. It's gritty yet sweet.

That wonderful kind of movie that manages to be ballsy and hard-nosed while also being tender, empathetic and human.

the story was rather predictable but because of the uncanny realism and some unexpected turns made this movie a lot more durable. quite a depressing yet effective story of hope being shattered and the awakening that comes from hardship.

Two good dramas in a row by Andrea Arnold, along with "Red Road." Gritty and disturbing, yet memorable and thought-provoking. Fassbender and Jarvis have big futures. I hope to see more from them and Jarvis in the future.

Powerfull drama. Grittty realism. This film was very emotionally intense at times. I loved the backdrop setting of some crappy place in England. It kind of reminded me of my hometown in Iowa.

Intelligently written and directed tale of the disenfranchised by Andrea Arnold. Features a knockout Katie Jarvis and another top-notch turn from Michael Fassbender. He joins the likes of Niels Arestrup and Ulrich Tukur as one of the best-working European actors currently on film. Bleak but excellently realised.

Andrea Arnold directs this raw coming of age story about a young girl, Mia who's struggling to find herself. The best British film I have seen in a long time! Katie Jarvis gives a wonderful debut performance.

Nods. I can't wait to see Wuthering Heights. I'm a friend of your moms on facebook. We talk on Flickchick. I was a film studies major as well. Graduated 5 years ago. She thought MUBI might be a bit more suited to my taste. She told me to check your page.

It really struck me how uncompromising Arnold gets in her storytelling, the theme is alarmingly relevant these days and there isn't a single moment that feels unearned for the sake of keeping the spirits up. There is a subtle, yet climatic revelation near the end that is so brilliantly conceived it will take you to the bottom end of reality without never having actually escaped from it.
