“I caught this today at the London Film Festival and went in blind, not really knowing anything about it other than that itu0026#39;s been described as a sci-fi When Harry Met Sally. Itu0026#39;s so much more than that though, but I donu0026#39;t want to risk spoiling the movie too much by explaining why, so all I will say is that this is a film which is incredibly inventive, and you can see itu0026#39;s a real labour of love as itu0026#39;s so playful and imaginative.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBest of all is the central romance however, and I say that as a die hard sci-fi / fantasy fan who loved the visual elements of the film. The central couple are given dialogue that made me laugh out loud an awful lot, and the performances are so strong that I fell in love with the characters very early on.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m a little wary of over praising this to the extent that people might have really high expectations of it, but despite that I canu0026#39;t help myself, and I had so much fun watching this movie that half way through I realised I was grinning inanely, and that didnu0026#39;t stop until the lights went up after the credits.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is a low budget film so anyone going in expecting Marvel style cgi might be a little disappointed, but in many ways the lo-fi style and occasional stop motion sequences makes it all the more delightful, and as you can tell, I was well and truly charmed by this gem of a movie.”
