Feedback is an impotent film that never gets going. Eddie Marsan lacks the charisma or gravitas to play the film's protagonist. His voice is also not suited to radio, and he proves to be miscast. Even Anthony Head would've been a better shout.
There is a painfully long and meandering introduction to this film, which ultimately proves ridiculous - had to switch it off halfway through Act 2.
On a technical note, the cinematography and production design looks almost too clean, too pristine, which directly contradicts the clear 'gritty' intention. The choice of wide lenses makes the place look ridiculously big when a more enclosed feel would have been better suited to the claustrophobic atmosphere.
Agree with others' criticisms re the political agenda - the dialogue is poor, with moralising diatribes and virtue signalling galore. A 'message' that is intended to be impactful comes across as laughable.
