Reviews
It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
A 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."
An educational and entertaining piece on a taboo subject, one that needs to be spoken more by men. The humour is tasteful and well timed to keep the audience's attention inbetween the educational parts. I for one will check myself in the future which I guess is the entire films purpose.
This is a really well made and well acted film about a serious subject (Testicular Cancer).The film treats the subject with humour, sadness, and seriousness in equal measures.It is a film that keeps the viewer interested and amused throughout but at the same time bringing home the message of the importance of self examination, follow up treatment, and the emotional aspects of all concerned when dealing with Testicular Cancer.Highly Recommended.
A comedy about cancer might seem unappealing but this is a warm and charming story well told.The leading lady presents a star turn, if you're not moved by the scene in the car, there's something amiss.I hope this film gets the wider audience it deserves.
