Review

 

Sometimes looking inside is the only way out.

After a near-fatal car accident in a stolen car, 19 year-old Jonathan Breech (Cillian Murphy) is given two choices: prison or a psychiatric hospital. He begrudgingly accepts the latter although he makes it clear to his psychiatrist (Rea) that he doesn't believe in therapy. Jonathan then begins the long journey of understanding himself through other patients. His friend Toby (Jackson), a sensitive tormented young man who blames himself for his brother's accidental death, offers support. And, by falling for Rachel (Vessey), who is constantly testing him, unable to believe that anyone can love her, learns to love others. A poignant coming-of-age drama, as a young man learns to accept his feelings and embrace life through love and friendship.

Cillian Murphy and Jonathan Jackson are fantastic!

The film combines dry wit with poignancy and seems to work well.

I really enjoyed this film. Cillian Murphy is brilliant as is the rest of the cast.
John Carney has taken such a difficult subject but approached it in quite a lighthearted way and it really works. there are some really funny moments and also some tragic, all in all a brilliant film and i thoroughly recommend
