Mike McCahill Guardian 10/04/2018
1/5
Green, 50, often gives the impression of being a 15-year-old whose parents bought him a camera to prise his hands from his underpants. Go to Full Review
Matthew Bond The Mail on Sunday (UK) 10/17/2018
0/5
The nasty, charmless, fatally misjudged Strangeways Here We Come turns out to be one of the worst films of the year rather than the taboo-trampling comic caper it must have once hoped to be. Go to Full Review

Ryker M 11/21/2024 PLEASE don't listen to the critics because they have zero idea what they are talking about!! I had a long-overdue laugh. Love the comedy style, well-produced for the low-end budget. See more 10/14/2018 The film is very well paced with good music . The acting is very credible and the humour is funny. The critics seem not to understand the film. Maybe its the old north south divide getting in the way as the Salford audiences have loved the film. See more 10/07/2018 An absolutely brilliant film. This film had a great cast and a hilarious story line. It almost felt like we knew the characters personally and made a connection with them as the story progressed. The soundtrack was also brilliant. Overall it was a great northern black comedy - people on a council estate sticking together with a sense of community even at a time of murder - and it is a fabulous independent film. See more 10/04/2018 The Guardian critic clearly wasn't in the screening I went to , "failed to raise a laugh"? I heard an audience who laughed throughout. Do yourself a favour, ignore the pretentious twaddle of middle class reviewers, and go and see the film. It's raw, in your face northern black humour. It's very funny. See more Read all reviews
