Little White Lies

Serves gore, cleverly administered comedy and blink-and-you'll-miss-it romance, all at the expense of a predictable plot.

Rated: 2/5

Film Pulse

The payoff doesn't feel earned, jamming in plot points within the final moments and hardly justifying the amount of time we spent enduring these characters.

Rated: 3.5/10

Film Ireland Magazine

Despite the impressive central performances, and moments of real cinematic tension... Tiger Raid ultimately struggles to escape its origins and fails to provide sufficient action or invention to fully justify its transition to the big screen.

Dixon has presented a feature that could well signal the start of a prosperous career in film.

Some superbly stylish flourishes make this a promising calling card for debut director Simon Dixon.

Starburst

The story ends on a satisfying and inevitable note that wraps things up in a neat but uncontrived way, culminating everything to have thus far occurred.

Rated: 7/10

If you want a shoot em up, with no acting. This is not it. It is gritty, well acted. These reviews don't do it justice.

This is like one of those countless flicks that came out after Pulp Fiction. It is decent until the final act where it swiftly nose dives into a pile of pig spunk.

Was lucky enough to catch this movie at the Galway Film Festival. I had heard good things about it and it turned out to be even better than I expected. 2 main characters worked very well off each other with the help of an excellent script and story line. Overall very intense movie with some great dark humour thrown in at just the right times. Would Def recommend.
