The film opens with an emotional montage of family footage of mainly the brotherly love which the main character has for his brother. There is unexpected dialogue throughout the movie that you wouldn't expect to be written on paper as it is portrayed as if it is improvised or displayed as if it's unknown what will happen next. Paddy Considine gives a terrifying performance which would make Taxi Driver's Travis Bickle look like a kindergarten teacher. Toby Kebell sensitively portrays a being who may be on the spectrum or suffering from learning difficulties, leaving nothing else wanting. With elements of horror, slasher, psychological drama and uncertain humour, this is a 21st century masterpiece.

Originally started watching as I'm a massive fan of Joe Gilgun, remembered Michelle Keegan as firery Tina MaCintyre from Corrie, loved Damien Molony in Crashing, had seen Aaron Hefferman in the theatre, love Bronagh Gallagher, versatility of Dominic West and great character actor Ramon Tikaram. And that's just to name a few. As well as being one of the 2 contemporary comedies that has made me laugh out loud. The seriousness of the depression of the main character, and the dire need to make ends meet is cleverly balanced with the sheer slapstick scenarios to create a brilliant black comedy. Absolutely seminal!
