Another excellent offering from Odeon's Screen unseen. To be fair I hadn't heard much about this one. I'd seen the trailer and that didn't give too much away. Brie Larson plays a mother living in a small room with her son Jack (Jacob Tremblay). At the start of the film Jack turns 5 and it quickly becomes apparent that he has never seen the outside world.. To say anymore would be treading on spoiler territory but let's just say it's a film of 2 halves..
The two main leads were outstanding, particularly from the young Jack. Also William H Macy and Joan Allen make an appearance to add a little extra gravitas..
All in all it was an excellent film that stays with you long after you've left the cinema. Plus it's nice to see Odeons Screen Unseen back on form after the disappointing Black Mass..
Overall a lingering ****'s
Isn't wasn't until later that I noticed the ticket actually has the name of the film on it! I'd had it for a week and didn't notice..
