The critical consensus

It’s an ‘extraordinary/ordinary’ story, and one that might have been utterly depressing, or worse, horribly cloying were it not for the sensitivity with which Davie and McKinnon have approached their subject and were it not for Platt’s incredible and admirable passion for life.

****(*)Miles Fielder, The List, 06/06/2013

The running time perhaps does the greatest justice to Neil Platt's life: it feels nowhere near long enough.

***(*)(*)Mike McCahill, The Guardian, 20/06/2013

A deeply affecting glimpse of a man's quest to salvage beauty from tragedy.

****(*)David Parkinson, Empire Online, 21/06/2013

Old movies of happier days in times gone by only underline his situation in a heartbreaker of a film.

****(*)Allan Hunter, Daily Express, 21/06/2013

The end result can’t help but be upsetting, but there are a smattering of laughs as well.
