This film start with a man "Joseph" walking to his working place, and he inspecting the arrival scene! As turnout this film is about a mental breakdown airport worker "Joseph" obsess with robbing the bank! Entire film full of boring conversation, and annoying overuse scene! Such as, overuse of the walking scene, overuse of the searching scene, overuse of the arguing scene, overuse of the calling names scene, overuse of the running scene, overuse of the drinking scene, overuse of the eating scene, overuse of the staring scene, overuse of the changing camera angle scene, overuse of the breaking things scene, overuse of the riding train scene, overuse of the inspecting scene, overuse of the robbing bank scene, and overuse of the whistling scene! Make the film unwatchable! At the end, Joseph waiting inside the bank after robbing the bank! Looks like the police is arriving! That's it! Wasting time to watch!

What on earth are you doing in this film? Surely you dont need the cash!

This movie is raw. The actor does a great job playing the character. I can't say much or it spoils it. Camera filming is shaky, but sort of fits what's going on.

If you've ever watched someone close have a severe mental breakdown then this might hit a few nerves. This was not overacted it was real and raw. This is happening all over the world and people need to realise it can happen to them or someone close to them. Whoever said this was overacted clearly hasn't witnessed this type of breakdown first hand in their lifetime. I hope they never do as it is most harrowing and terrifying for family members. The acting was first class and really showed the true reality of the lack of understanding of others. My heart goes out to those who have suffered such severe mental breakdowns and their loved ones that have witnessed them.

Reminded me so much of the Michael Douglas film, 'Falling Down'...just not as good. I would like to see the lead actor in something else, because he was brilliant. Everyone and everything else about this film sucked!

What an incredibly hard film to watch. I liked it, I hated it, and as it went on I felt the cheese was slipping of my cracker!! Glad I got to the end without having a breakdown. Well done, but in an uncomfortable, that jumper I haven't worn in a year is infested with creepy crawlies, sort of way. Don't worry I've covered all the mirrors in the house, because I keep having arguments with someone who has an uncanny resembleance to me!!

Ben Whishaw is, in my opinion, the best actor of this generation. From theatre, film and television. His performance is simply outstanding. I loved this film. I was on the edge of my seat not knowing what would happen next! This will not be for everyone but for people who supreme character performances and a thrilling ride, you too will enjoy this. Will definitely watch what this director does next. Excellent work all round.

Can't Say I Didn't Try...I Tried, 15 To 20 Minutes In, It Just Seemed Like It Wasn't Going Anywhere Fast, How Does It Have a 6.4 Rating When Movies From The Gate Take Off Like a 747, But To Each His Own, Maybe If I Could Have Watched 6 Or 7 More Minutes, But Honestly I Couldn't!

I have just finished watching this and I am emotionally drained. For those saying this is amatuerish I am sorry but you know nothing about cinema at all. The hand held camera works brilliantly - it lets us into josephs world. The fact that people on the street are staring at him and the camera doesn't matter as they would stare at his behaviour anyway and it adds to the realism and this must have added to the pressure for Ben Wishaw to pull this off. At times this feels like a cruel documentary where the subject is allowed to hit rock bottom for the good of the film. This is stunning. Wishaw should have had an oscar - he has a massive career ahead of him. Give it a chance as it does start slowly but with good reason. Let your self immerse in it and you won't even realise you are watching a movie.
