Usually I hate to watch silly
teen romance or comedies but I would love to watch something refreshing and delightful
like this coming of age British comedy drama about an atavistic teenager. From its
very beginning it sucks you into the character of Oliver Tate. Everyone at
school bullies him and teased him calling gay. He is absolutely normal though
but contemplative one who prefers his own company and loves reading a
dictionary He got a crush on sweet but quite unromantic Jordana. He has two missions
of immediate attention- to lose his virginity and save his mother from affair
with next door mystic weirdo neighbor Graham the ninja. His father is marine
biologist and the noble man who neglected reflecting upon self accepted
imperfection to relationship with his wife. Oliver understands this because
he’s more like him.
Told brilliantly in first person
narrative and smartly written and directed by Richard Ayoade, the film is
finest feel good film, I’ve seen after long. Alex Turner’s soulful renditions
are so refreshing and soulful that I like to download and listen OST of the
film for a quite some time.
Recommended refreshment.
Ratings-7/10
