r96 s A stinker! I had no idea what I was getting myself in for with this one. I only chose to see it as I watched 'Lawrence of Arabia' and 'A Dangerous Man: Lawrence After Arabia' across the last two days so thought I'd tick this off to complete 'the set', so all I know about it was the title - nothing else. Within a literal minute of it starting, I knew it was going to be a long, long two hours. Firstly, as I always note for these sorta movies, I respect pretty much every filmmaker out there. I've never attempted to do so, but it's obviously undeniable that making movies on a shoestring budget is no mean feat. It is nothing personal, I'm simply speaking via my own opinion and experience of watching this 2020 release. Two issues I had with this were audio and acting. The audio seemed quite poorly done, some parts were quieter than intended (e.g. when Lawrence gets deep speaking to the audience) and some bits were louder than necessary (e.g. gun shots). The level of acting is also bottom tier, Tom Barber-Duffy as the main man just didn't work. Other negatives include the plot and its run time. There is not enough in this for a full blown production, or at the very least not one that runs for two actual hours. The second half doesn't even feature Barber-Duffy as Lawrence, it's just one long 'reaction' to what precedes in the first half. Either way, no part of this flick is even the slightest bit interesting, unfortunately. The conclusion turns documentary too, almost 'yer da on Facebook'-esque. Oh, and Brian Cox narrates it (yeah, I don't know either). Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/11/24 Full Review DPC This film is hilariously awful, I was thoroughly entertained throughout by all the awful directing decisions, acting and cinematography...and don't get me started on the sound! This is a movie that really does emphasise the fact that some films really should not make it past the concept phase. If your bored and want a few laughs then I recommend this.
