Rating: 4/5 --
Although this appears to start out as a straightforward 70s pastiche... underneath the obvious jokes there is a charming and involving coming of age tale, made all the more appealing thanks to a well-chosen cast.

Rating: 2/5 --
Not funny enough to be a great comedy or impactful enough to be an emotive drama, this inoffensive, lightly amusing story drifts along without much sense of purpose.

Rating: 2/5 --
An uncomfortable compromise between the evident comic talents that brought Gervais to the fore in the first place, and the commercial apparatus that his popularity has invited

3 stars out of 4 -- A bittersweet coming-of-age [story]....Filled with great performances from the likes of Ralph Fiennes, Emily Watson, Steve Speirs, and the adorable Felicity Jones.
Premiere
Gervais now seems adrift in some kind of sub, sub, sub Richard Curtis land, where character, mood and plot are simply thrown out the window and to hell with it.

The Spectator
4 stars out of 5 -- [A] genuinely touching, funny little film....[It] will remind you just how talented Gervais and Merchant are when they're on home turf.

Rating: 4/5 --
The period setting has been captured to a tee; it's all red bricks, ghastly wallpaper, casual racism and cut-glass fruitbowls. Everything is viewed through a haze of cigarette smoke. It's little wonder the kids want out.
