Another Year

Joao Pedro Amorim

delightful film, with some great shots and a magnificent winter light in the last 40 minutes. a collection of broken people, orbiting probably the last nice happy family. a film that walks towards death.

The master of British social realism serves up this mundane gem . Watch as your empathy gradually shifts from each character to another.

All around excellent. I love how the film makes you think Tom and Gerri are this nice little couple, but at the end, we find that they have this dark undertone. Blown away - Mike Leigh is a genius.

Mike leigh does it again, yet again. nobody knows how to make social realism funny quite like this particular auteur.

By far Mike Leigh's best film since "Secrets and Lies", perhaps since "Naked". Witty and warm in tone throughout all four seasons, but ultimately a dark and deeply humanistic tale of loneliness and desperation. Flawless performances and nothing of the quirky silliness that has infected some of his recent films.. Lesley Manville is a stand-out.

My first experience with Leigh and i am satisfied. A good drama and depiction of various interesting characters.

Wow, I didn't find there to be a 'dark undertone' to Tom and Gerri at all. They are still good people at the end of the film. Oh and they're not so 'privileged'.

Lars Ole Kristiansen

A sad, sad, sad and quite perfect film - easily Mike Leighs best since "Naked", though more comparable to the brilliant "Secret and Lies".
