A good performance by Rory Kinnear, who for my money was the actor who was most convincing in his role. There were some nice performances from other actors, but they were less believable.
This reminded me at times of the film Brassed Off which would be perhaps worth a look for those who haven't seen it and enjoyed Bank of Dave.
Bank of Dave did not entice me greatly at the beginning of the film, and I switched to something else. I came back to it though the next day and watched the rest.
It has some charm, some funny moments and a kind of backburner love interest as well as a central them and us theme.
This is a film that simmers quite nicely without ever quite coming to the boil. I think it is certainly worth watching though for the performance of Rory Kinnear..
