If your hoping for the new "Hustler" or "Colour of money" stay away from this,snooker action is terrible on so many levels,final frame action looks cgi,main character never held a cue in his life.Rest of story is rushed and predictable,never felt anything for character,movie is trying to be 3 different things,pick one and stay with it.

Snooker loopy
Excellent and refreshing break from usual dirge of working class British shout fests!
Watched this film and to be honest wasn't expecting much. The whole snooker thing really put me off because its such a boring sport with a nerd following. However, I'm so glad I gave it a chance because it totally won me over and the snooker is really just a back drop, a way out. The story isn't necessarily original but its told in such an entertaining and engaging way, that it was really interesting and the performances were great all round but especially from the lead Sam Gittens. Reminded me of a young Ray Winstone. A really strong script and the ending was so good. I found this so refreshing as a British independent film that chose to stay away from the usual shout fests and swearing contests you see in a lot of gritty UK stuff. I see a few people say the lead is rubbish at snooker. I don't know if he is or not but the guy can act. If you're a snooker ananorak expecting to watch a snooker game then this film probably isn't for you but if you are a film fan, particular British films with a fresh feel and feel good vibe, I would definitely recommend you watch this film.
Not only about snooker
This is actually a very good film. Definitely recommended.
