So I went to see #Wasteman yesterday, I very much did not enjoy it. Just not for me. But I'm glad it was in the cinema, it was something different but for me it'd have been better as a short film. It would have benefitted from the third act being sooner and I didn't really connect with the story.
I've just watched Wasteman. It was brilliant. A hard watch. brit Prison drama. So tense, I forgot to breathe at one point & was shielding my eyes. It's no5 for everyone. I wasn't sure if it was for me at ine point.
Superb performances from David Jonsson and Tom Blythe. 9/10

“If British filmmakers produced features with half as much style as this one, the future of cinema in the UK is exhilarating and limitless.”

Taylor is 13 years inside for manslaughter, now a drug addict & institutionalised submissive but early parole, while not ready, has him dreaming of meeting his son 14. But a new cell mate jeopardises it all
Grittily shot, 2 good leads & a solid plot build the tension. Solid debut film 7
Wasteman
A really good film. At times it feels almost real, like you’re watching actual events unfold. There’s a lovely twist at the end too. Well worth a watch.
7/10
