Preview: Richard Gadd puts the pun into punk
With Waiting For Gaddot he's gone over that edge. No-one takes dodgy wordplay quite so far -- or crunchy, blood-spattered slapstick -- or po-mo multimedia madness.
Stuart Black, Londonist, 22nd October 2015Review: SuperBob
Everything about SuperBob is unlikely. It's a movie about a postman from Peckham with super powers. It grew out of a barely-there short film with the help of the producer who made The Usual Suspects. It cost around a million quid but is more cinematic than most multiplex fare out there (and frankly it pisses all over Man Of Steel). And unlikeliest of all: it's a British rom-com that's actually both sweet and funny.
