It's a bit laboured and not funny enough but has charm and heart.
April 04, 2013
It's a throwback, but relaxed, sweet and funny with it: a first feature that makes an impression by not pushing too hard to make an impression.

Just like Arnold Schwarzenegger was told his name was too big for movie posters, Marcus Markou's inspirational debut feature film has an impossible title on purpose.
April 04, 2013
Likeable British recession comedy enlivened by a strong support cast and a topical, engagingly feelgood central theme, though it's slightly let down by an underwritten script and a frustrating central performance from Stephen Dillane.

This flat, feelgood family story transposes the cliches of Zorba the Greek to the present day.
August 15, 2013
There are zero surprises here, but a strong cast and a decent script add up to dependable entertainment.
April 05, 2013
Some meaty themes and complex performances add badly needed weight to this somewhat simplistic British comedy-drama.

A late pitch at pathos isn't quite so convincing, but otherwise this is a fresh, funny and poignant snapshot of ethnic life in London.

In its favour, it's a movie with heart, charm and well-crafted characters.
April 01, 2013
An undemanding comedy drama, but Stephen Dillane and Georges Corraface give crowd-pleasing performances.
January 09, 2014
The cast is pleasant enough to enliven the generic material, though much of writer-director Marcus Markou's dialogue is beyond salvaging.
April 04, 2013
It gets by almost wholly on hangdog charm, but that's an underrated asset, and so is Dillane, delivering a terse and rueful performance that's typically excellent.
