Submarine


This is a typical British Film, where it moves at quite a slow pace, there are no big special effects, but the narrative is brilliant.
Most people don't like this film either because they don't find it funny enough (clearly they do not share the same sense of humour as me) and because it moves at a slow pace.
I don't mind the film moving at a slow pace, in fact i think it makes the film better. It's not like those big hollywood films where it's all action packed and exciting. This film is simple and flows quite easily, as long as you're completely into the plot of the film.

The film is following the life of Oliver Tate, a teenage boy who is trying to fix his parents' marriage and trying to get a girl to sleep with him.

It's a feel good, funny film and i love it.

For Craig Roberts (Oliver Tate) this is a huge step up for him from previous acting jobs he's had such as 'Young Dracula' and 'Tracey Beaker'
This film has made him now a legend and no doubt we'll probably see more of him!
His interpretation of awkward character, Oliver Tate is brilliant and for someone as young as he is, his acting skills was brilliant.

This film is also of course the first film Richard Ayoade (Moss from IT crowd) has directed.
Ayoade is quite an awkward character, like Oliver Tate and his take on this film is truly brilliant, fresh and unique.

Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys) made all the music for this film, which really suited the atmosphere of the film.
It made sense for Alex Turner to do the music for this film as Richard Ayoade had previously directed music videos for the Arctic Monkeys.

Deffo watch this film if you're really into the music and narrative of films. it is a hit!
