Critical reception

The New York Times called the film, "a pleasantly diverting, terribly British, sometimes contrived melodrama, that is true to its title but hardly the best of this genre to come along."[2]

gollark: Well, UK student loans are "only" paid back as 9% of your income over £27000 or so, so it actually isn't *that* terrible.
gollark: Also they're pretty nice pets, as long as they don't bite you or something.
gollark: Try geckos. Most people haven't had experience with geckos chasing them.
gollark: *continues having absolutely no understanding of this conversation*
gollark: But it already has gone up to the "definitely really bad" bit in some regions.
