5 5 Enjoyed the film very much. Didn't want it to end.
5 5 Loved the film
5 4 The moth was superb
4 4 Difficult to sit through, obnoxious man
4 4 Too much use of the F word; not really needed
4 4 Faithful unto Death.' A relationship fractures at a crucial moment as portrayed with some accomplished acting
3 3 A sad story, well told.
3 3 Interesting story of co-dependency. Excellently played by both primary characters. Shame I couldn't warm to either of the characters - there was something fake about the whole film for me.
3 3 Glenn Close was brilliant
3 3 Brilliant acting but plot too easy to predict
2 2 Thin and cliched. Just about watchable

5 5 Revenge is sweet!
5 4 Stomach gripping - achieved what I assumed the directo wanted to say on the packet
5 4 Brilliant mix of hopelessness, misery, bullying, retribution and the wonderful comedy of the utterly ludicrous
4 4 Darkly comic realism - evocative if not uplifting
4 4 But did not like extreme violence
4 3 The dogs were superb. The film was a good watch
4 3 Revenge is not quite so sweet
4 3 Thought we had chosen to attend a non-violent films!!!!
3 3 Noir but bordering on just plain stupid
1 1 Deeply unpleasant
0 0 Awful!

5 5 Brilliant. Unusual. Very artistic.
5 5 Il evoquait le memoires joyeuse de la France
5 5 Charmante!
5 5 Charmant pour les yeux
4.5 4.5 Great!
4 4 Imaginitive ideas and likeable artists (if only a bit long) but reassuring that art can still have popular support and involvement of ordinary people.

5 5 Brilliant acting
5 5 Brilliant acting
4 5 Gloomy film. Great performance by Maxine Peake. Life in the 70s
3 4 Maxine Peake on fine form. Plot somewhere between educating Rita and My Fair Lady, with northern grit
2 3 Good performance by Maxine Peake, but storyline unconvincing and hackneyed.

5 5 A really fantastic film
5 5 Tense and claustrophobic thriller
5 5 Brilliant. What a tour de force. Excellent acting and suspense!
4 5 I thought minimalism was for furniture and I don't like it, but this was great. Fantastic acting, twists and turns and kept interest throughout.
4 4 You should not have said in your summary that there was a "massive plot twist" because I guessed very early on who'd done it and I would otherwise not have done so.
4 4 Knew it was Iben who had killed baby. Very claustrophobic and intense.

5+ 5+ To see this particular film was one of the reasons I joined IFS. It was even better than I expected but even more depressing than expected. Man's inhumanity to man. Apostasy - hypocrisy. Thank you.
4 4 Keep well away from Wellington Road
4 2 Depressing
3 1 Beyond dreary
3 1 There's always room to mess with people's minds!
1 1 A thoroughly ugly film, like a cockroach crawling through your dinners.

5 5 Brilliant film. Tense, moving, thought-provoking. Shocking but realistic. Best I've seen this season.
5 4 A strange mix of harshness and hope but too harrowing to give 5:5
5 4 Captivating; very well made and rather traumatic
5 3 Hard to watch
