Review of Sunshine on Leith (2013) by Leon B — 01 Feb 2014

Review:

This movie was definitely what I expected from Dexter Fletcher. As soon as they starting singing at the beginning, I knew that I had made a big mistake. If it wasn't for the annoying singing, the film wouldn't have been half bad, but I should have read the plot before I rented it. The ending was REALLY bad. It reminded me of a advert that was filmed at Liverpool street. There is an embedded concept that was well put together, but on the whole, it's weak and bloody annoying. Disappointing!

Round-Up:

When I saw that Jason Flemying, who is only in a couple of scenes, and Peter Mullan was in this film, I had high hopes, but what a let down. There are a couple of scenes that wasn't that bad but then they start bloody singing. I really didn't expect this type of movie from Dexter Fletcher, who is known for movies that are not in this type of genre. Anyway, I'm not the best person to rate this film because my brain switched off after the first 10 minutes.

Budget: N/A.

Worldwide Gross: £4.1million.

I recommend this movie to people who are into there musicals/dramas about 2 Scottish friends getting back to ordinary life after being in Afghanistan. 2/10.
