CGiii Comment

A great idea...with Ricky Tomlinson no less!

Unfortunately, this is a film of two halves...the good half and the not-so good.

Technically, it's pretty good...but, some of the directorial decisions tend to make it dip when and where it shouldn't have!

As for the ending...what a wasted opportunity. It should have flown off the screen!
