Purely Joyful Movie!

Let's be realistic.

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

For me, this film doesn't put a foot wrong. The colours are sombre, the cinematography beautiful, the music haunting - just enough of it and well chosen - and the acting is flawless. Eddie Marsan conjures up yet another truly believable character -what an actor. In fact every actor has his or her part to play in this film as the ending clearly indicates.The subject matter is deeply fitting for a fragmented society such as ours but a tiny ray of hope exists in the loneliness of the people portrayed within, even though you've been thrown off balance. The ending is truly touching. This film will stay with you and I hope you will be left wondering why it didn't get more attention on its release - no special effects and explosions I suppose, just a well scripted and superbly acted independent film.

Best film I have seen in years - not usually inspired to write reviewsGenuine - observant - considered - human - respectful - slow enough to focus on what really matters - exposes some of our modern attitudes for their shallowness and small mindedness. Sometimes you have to slow down and enter into someone else's world to see the value in it.A triumph for the value of individual action - what you do in the world matters - even if it seems to go unnoticed.Brilliant acting, directing, music... Brilliant all round! Only heard about it after I asked a film buff relative for her top 5 films of 2015 This was her number one - I agree!!

In a shifting world, where everything goes fast, and we try to get on with our busy busy lives, comes this quiet, haunting and basic film which very bluntly give us a reminder of what really matters; friendship and that somebody care for us, even when we are gone. The film deals with death, but the message is really to stop and re-think our priority's, and take care of those around us. Nobody should die alone. I remember reading a review of this film in a Norwegian paper, it was a good review, except the journalist did not like the ending. I disagree - death is something we have to deal with and this film points out the reason why. Remarkebly strong performances of everyone involved. One of the best British films that are made in recent times.

Brilliant, emotional, thought-provoking movie.The story of a man whose job it is to trace the relatives and friends of deceased people. A dour, methodical, deliberate man, the movie deals mostly with a particular case of his, and the effect it has on him and other people concerned.From the start the movie makes you think about loneliness and mortality, in particular your own, and what you leave behind. Emotional too, in that you see how people are affected by other people's lives.Despite all this, the movie seemed to be heading for a predictable and possibly lacklustre ending. However, the final few scenes are among the most powerful, emotional and thought-provoking I've ever seen. Certainly not predictable.Superb work by Eddie Marsan in the lead role. He was perfect for the role. Good support from Joanne Froggatt.An understated masterpiece.
