10/10
Great film
7 October 2014
I absolutely love this film.

Original, relevant, and honest. Acting is superb, Sheridan Smith shines as per. It's so relatable too; I have been these girls, my friends have been these girls. It was truly refreshing to watch something that I can see myself in.

The feeling of the club can feel claustrophobic, but then again isn't it meant to? With the setting confined to the club and in particular the club toilets for the majority of the film the characters are forced to confront themselves, seen through multiple mirror and toilet cubicle shots. The noise and bustle of the club is juxtaposed with the quiet reflection of the ladies toilets. In this quiet their honest selves are forced to come out and the powder room becomes the place of truth and reflection.

All in all, an enjoyable film because it's so honest.
