Gonna see this movie tonight. It's gotten good reviews. It is always interesting to see what the British come up with. I get so tired of Hollywood movies. I am hoping this one is refreshing. Will post again after I see it.

I am interested to hear what you think. I wanted to see it, but never got to it. It looked cute!

I so wanted to see this when it was at the film festival here but I couldn't go that night (did get to go a different day though). I read some excellent reviews for it. Looking forward to your review!

I'm having a hard time describing this movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was especially happy with the natural way the two brothers were in this movie; very real and believable. It is essentially a study of right choices/wrong choices, or good deeds vs bad or selfish deeds, with regard to each one deciding on how this money will be handled. There was a very clever way of telling how the money was stolen and I felt appropriate apprehension and sense of foreboding when the robber appeared. There were some tense, anxious moments, some delightfully funny and cute moments and all was very real to how "real" people would react. I say this in opposition to the typical "Hollywood" types and their perceptions that often appear in movies. I'm not sure if this all makes sense; like I said, it is hard to put into words. I loved the movie, thought it was well done and could very well be a 'sleeper' movie this year. I would recommend it and I would certainly like to see comments from others. Maybe they will be more eloquent.
