Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

"The 56 Year Old Boy" is a British short film from 2 years ago that runs slightly under 15 minutes. Writer, director and male lead actor is Bertie Gilbert, who was only 17 I think when he made this pretty short movie. Taking his age into account, it is a decent achievement. Taking it not into account it is fairly forgettable. I did not find it convincing in terms of the two core areas: acting and directing. Gilbert should have chosen somebody other than himself to play the part, but then again his female co-lead wasn't any better. I saw the filmmaker's age early on and wondered if he could maybe be a British Dolan as he was(is) still so young, but this one did not leave me impressed at all. It has a strange plot that is pretty baity, but not elaborated on properly. I cannot recommend "The 56 Year Old Boy". Thumbs down and I hope Gilbert can step up his game in the coming years. It's all about quality, not quantity.
