Times (UK)

A haunting and masterly portrait of the bleeding edges of so-called Broken Britain.

Rated: 4/5

Guardian

For all the embedded detail about seaside towns and dingy provincial discos, it often doesn't feel like a British film, and that's meant to be a compliment.

Rated: 3/5

Time Out

The sensitive, inquiring photography is by far this British indie's strongest selling point.

Rated: 3/5

HeyUGuys

It's a truly accomplished study of his demise, a sad portrait of his life.

An impressively dour and dense new British drama, Blood Cells is a strikingly dark drama given heart and soul thanks to Barry Ward's suitably intense lead performance.

A moving and intense family drama, loved Barry Ward as the lead. Bold piece of cinema…

A moving and unique film. Didn't know much going in but was so moved by Barry Ward's performance, you don't get many British road movies but this is a really stunning journey.

Left early...gloomy, creepy, and supremely improbable! Ok even if you had new face....you'd still have same eyes, same voice, same mannerisms, same history, etc. whole plot was ridiculous. So disappointing I left before it was over.

Blood Cells is a bleak and depressing expedition that compels the viewer to observe Adam's melancholy existence. This film allows you to experience the world through the eyes of a person blinded by depression.
