I actually enjoyed this. My wife and I were working from home and looking for something to put on in the background, stumbled across this on Netflix and thought we'd give it a go.
I like Tim Spall as an actor and he doesn't disappoint here. His growth as a character is easily the most compelling thing about the film. That and the soundtrack which is glorious.
I especially enjoyed the mugging scene in which mild mannered Peter, who never would have said boo to a goose before, stands up to the would be mugger and gives him a solid punch across the face, even asking if he was alright afterwards.
Yes it can be slow in places, but give it a chance. Not everything in todays Cinema has to be action packed and hyper edited.
