Reviews
" Bill Milner are as abrasive Linnet Will and Will Poulter as rebellious daredevil Lee is a true godsend for the film: The two actors -comers prove to be refreshing natural talents - they are immediately close to the heart, and they carry the story effortlessly alone. [ ... ] A gorgeous, heart-warming tribute to the 80s - simply irresistible! "
" A film full of exuberant ideas, just celebrating a child's imagination like the fantasy machine cinema. Lovingly accurately staged and furnished, it offers fun, behind intimate irreverent (family) entertainment. "
