Review of Treacle Jr. (2010) by Rob L — 25 Apr 2012
Another charming film from the somewhat less than prolific Jamie Thraves, Aiden Gillen steps outside his comfort zone as the kind of nutter you always bump into on the tube - but a man who clearly has a heart made of the gold stuff. Sad at times, the suburban London of summer is well captured and the tragicomic mood never lurches too much.
Cat lovers will enjoy it and the whole notion of escape from a seemingly dull existence is again played well. Some good set pieces involving a drum kit and an inhaler.
