3/5
Writer/director Simon Blake's provocative debut feature taps into society's collective fear of young people in a way that will resonate with anyone who has ever lived in a major city. Go to Full Review
Wendy Ide The Times (UK) May 7, 2015
4/5

Geoffrey Macnab Independent (UK) May 7, 2015
3/5
The film, set in north London, is stylishly shot and Gillen plays the troubled lead with a mercurial mix of swagger, self-loathing and self-pity. Go to Full Review

2/5

3.5/5
Gillen portrays Carver as a somewhat latter-day Hamlet; an essentially benevolent man who struggles to retain his sanity as he seeks to apprehend his bizarre, fragmented reality through grief and psychological hostility. Go to Full Review
