Overrated and overhyped
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
View MoreThere's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
View MoreA wonderful sensitively portrayed story of Jack Jackson (played by Chris Hudson) who discovers he has a lump on one of his testicles, which he dismisses for a while until he is convinced to get himself checked out. Anna, his wife (played by Elizabeth Joyce Morris)goes through all the emotions and feelings of a couple in turmoil once Jack has admitted his discovery to his wife. The car scene is so moving it had me in tears to see Anna completely broken. Beautifully played by both characters. The supporting cast give their all to the film, making it an essential watch for any of you blokes out there too proud to admit you might be scared or indeed terrified to see a doctor if you think you may have a lump on one of your testicles. Congratulations to all who were connected to this wonderful film that should be shown to as many organisations as possible. As the director (Darren Scott) said, "If one life has been saved, then it was all worth it."
View MoreI had a fantastic evening watching this film at the Warwickshire screening. The serious subject matter was enveloped by a fabulously witty script. Emotional and comedic performances were given throughout. Well worth watching. We're looking forward to it coming out on DVD. Excellent film, I sincerely hope it gets men to self-check for testicular cancer. The message should've been received - loud and clear.
View MoreThis lighthearted comedy about cancer had me laughing one minute and crying the next! It shows the true impact this disease can have on someone, along with their family and friends. Its' clear message about the importance of checking yourself and what to do next is a real eye opener and is portrayed with such dignity and respect to the writers true fight. While doing all this, it was so funny at the exact right moments. The leading lady was just incredible, along with all other cast and crew who made this true story a film where you are willing the lead, 'Jack', to get through it from the very beginning! A very professional and well made film. Definitely worth a watch. 10/10.
View MoreThe subject matter for this movie is a taboo subject for men, this is a well written, directed and well worth a watch. There's moments of laughter and crying, the story tells you what could happen, it's not always the case but if people can learn from it. If one person watching it reguarly checks themselves and if finds something goes to there doctor it's message will have got across. Hoping people will spread the word once they've seen this film with a very real subject.
