About Me

My Photo
I am a short story writer hoping to gain inspiration from the greatest films of all-time. I am also seeking motivation to watch these films, many of which I’ve put off seeing for years. I like to think I have achieved both of these goals, at least to a degree. I’m not a movie critic, though I do let an opinion slip out on occasion. I’m just trying to write where my motivation takes me. I’ll continue with it as long as the desire remains strong. The book I am using for my main guidance is "1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die." I have the 5th edition, but there are newer editions out there.

FISH TANK (2009)


Catching up on some recent 1001 listings
(Film 6 of 12)

Fish Tank-I found the second half of this movie more satisfying than the first half as it took me quite awhile to warm up to the rather unpleasant characters in this film, but I eventually got there.

  1. So glad you reviewed this, very good movie, just not good enough. It moves at it's own pace, and the gritty look may turn some away, but I have to say that I liked following this story. Good review Chris.

  2. A lot of indy films do seem to require patience.
