      Audience Member Mostly enjoyable nice to see a Glasgow based film Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/30/18 Full Review Audience Member I liked this film. It is simple and nicely shot. Easy and enjoyable to watch. The contrived ending lets it down a bit, but I can forgive it that. The story is of the main character and how he finds himself, and has a feel good factor without being too cheesy. Its about family and culture as well. I would have liked to have seen more shots of Glasgow. It's a simple film about the stuff that matters.
