Leave your thoughts about Submarine.
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferRefreshingly funny, poignant and wonderfully perceptive with razor-sharp wit. It's the kind of rare coming-of-age film that's well-acted and abundant in both style and substance. |
| Wall Street JournalJoe MorgensternWonderfully funny and subversively affecting. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Jennie PunterOne of the most irresistible films of the year so far. |
| Daily Mirror (UK)David EdwardsNot since The Catcher In The Rye has there been such an acutely observed tragi-comedy about the horrors of being a teenager. |
| The Ooh TrayEd WhitfieldSubmarine is a closed world like the best stories, a complete movie in every sense. |
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterRetains a strong literary flavour but is also told with much cinematic verve and an engaging eagerness to please. |
| Ultra CultureCharlie LyneSubmarine is an almost perfect coming-of-age story, with a bang on cast and an assured sense of self that never detracts from its narrative. |
| At the Movies (Australia)David StrattonThere have been any number of movies about the problems faced by teenagers when they fall in and out of love, but the team behind Submarine seem to have got it all just right. |
| The SpectatorDeborah RossThe beauty of Submarine is all in the details, particularly the script's wry observations, which can be excruciating. |
| HeyUGuysJamie NeishIt's 97 minutes of absolute cinematic joy. |
