Indie Mac User - 8/10 by Benjamin GummeryBold, Hopeful British indie comedy/drama at it's best'
International Business Times - 6/10 by Amy WestThe heart that Hall put into making the picture constantly permeates the screen.
Guardian - 4/10 by Leslie FelperinAt least it might work as inspiration for DIY film-makers to prove they could do better.
User Review - 10/10 by Kalwinder Singh DI watched this film, thinking throughout that my two children would also love it too. As a grown up (a parent) I guess the older we get, the more we lose that magic that we once had inside us. Although the child within us never disappears, our sensitivities become hardened with time. We forget about the thoughts and feelings we once held on to and which our own children will also experience too. A Dozen Summers takes you back in time. I would expect nothing less from a film with (Doctor) Colin Baker in it.
User Review - 10/10 by Darren Mloved it, hugely enjoyable family film :)
User Review - 10/10 by Shannon LThis is a beautiful little film; the director and writer cracked the code and present a film that appeals to everyone, young and old. Young viewers will see parallels in their own lives while older viewers will experience the poignant moments that went on to shape and inform the people they became because of them. Witty, touching, and with equal parts drama and comedic beats, this is a movie that deserves every accolade it garners. Well done from all involved.
User Review - 10/10 by Doctor SA great film that you can very happily watch and enjoy at any time! The story of the film is one that you will recognise from what happens in real life but will be refreshingly surprised by its honesty that you rarely see in film. Especially for a movie that will appeal so well to children. Expect good laughs along with a good dose of meta references which is impossible not to enjoy!
User Review - 10/10 by Jakob BThis film is a real delight! It appeals to kids and adults alike, as the story explores issues and themes which we are all familiar with. It is really quite extraordinary how on the mark Kenton Hall is with his writing here, creating a film which resonates so deeply with so many different people. The girls are hilarious to watch, and indeed the whole film is, for want of a better word, FUN! From start to finish, this film is a joy to watch; it's entertaining, thought-provoking without going TOO deep and it's a real signal of intent from the independent film world that small budget films can achieve great things! A must-see, and a film I will certainly watch again, and again, and again. Bravo
User Review - 10/10 by Chris IFantastic script. Brilliantly funny in places. If you accept that this is not a big budget film, then you can get on with enjoying it. Very clever, very moving.
User Review - 8/10 by Simon MAs a fan of low-budget independent films (especially British ones), and also a Doctor Who geek, it was inevitable that I would cross paths with A Dozen Summers. Made on a budget that might cover a Hollywood film's hotel expenses for one evening, this delight puts twin sisters (on-screen and in real life) centre stage, in a tale of two 12 year-olds coping with school and family life. While this summary may sound a bit dull, the film is anything but that, with the writer and director Kenton Hall delivering the story in a rather unique way. Kicking off with narrator Colin Baker and roving camera, initially following two other much younger schoolgirls, in a mock wildlife documentary fashion, the film is promptly hijacked by Maisie and Daisy McCormack, who decide that the initial project is too boring and that a movie about their lives would be far more interesting! From that opening scene onwards, we are plunged into the world and imagination of Maisie and Daisie, as we see the problems they face at school and at home, interspersed with a series of offbeat, and often very funny, fantasy sequences, with nods to various classic and popular films along the way. The witty script also deals with serious topics, such as bullying and parental separation, but does so in a way that the humour, charm and vibrancy of the story is always at the forefront. The performances of the twins Scarlet and Hero are natural, believable, and often amusing, while the parents played by Kenton Hall and Sarah Warren deliver scene-stealing moments with their quirky humour. Like all micro-budget films, because of the financial, and therefore time, restrictions, there are some technical blips, perhaps the sound recording could have been better in a few scenes, but that's a minor rock in a sea of pleasures. For British viewers familiar with the children's shows Grange Hill and Tracy Beaker, there's common territory in A Dozen Summers, only with much more humour and a delightful whimsical style. So overall A Dozen Summers gets a solid 8/10 for me. I look forward to seeing more from Kenton Hall in the future!
