The movie is at its best when Anna and Clint are together. Clint is quite appealing, from the time he solves his class murder mystery by saying Anna is alive, so there's no murder.
I should point out that kids Clint's age should not watch this movie. There is so much bad language bleeped out (with the character's mouth blurred) that sometimes it is hard to tell what is going on.
Brendan is quite appealing and you want him and Anna together, if they can be.'
And early in the movie something has been found the name of which can't be mentioned, and it cannot be shown either.
So will Anna get her life straightened out? I can say this much. There is one development that makes a big impression on Anna, and on us. I would say the ending, too, is satisfying.
This is one of those low-key examples of British comedy. I've seen laugh-out-loud comedy made by Brits, but this isn't that. For someone with my taste, it's not that easy to enjoy.
However, Jodie Whittaker is appealing in her way. She's just more of a challenge than the cute perky type I'm used to.
Pretty much everyone does a good job acting. I've mentioned Ozzy Myers as Clint.
One effective scene has little or no audio from the actual video, where everything moves slowly and Anna is confronted by this wacko dressed for diving in a dance club, and she runs away frightened.. In a later scene, I realize she is seeing Billy, because she sees him and no one else does.
The music is mostly depressing folk or folk rock. Hearing "Here I Go Again" by Whitesnake was encouraging until I actually heard the song and realized it was the same, only with synthesizers instead of guitar. Then when guitars are introduced, the song is just loud.
If you are the type who likes poetry readings and indie films and criticizes anything too commercial, I think you'll like this. That's just not me.
