Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

hmga-90462 I'm sure I've seen worse films in my life - I just can't remember when.This was pure and utter cringe-worthy rubbish!! The singing, the songs and their environments couldn't have been worse. And inappropriate - my god! Honestly I've seen better kindergarten school plays. The story line was paper-thin and completely pointless. Why would anyone make a film like this? It wasn't entertaining and had nothing to say. I can only surmise it was produced as a tax dodge. I have absolutely no idea how this could have gotten 6.6 on IMDb. If I could, I'd give it 0.66

magdalenahallepape I am not a big fan of the Proclamers, but the movie really made the best out of it. Most of the actors sing really well. George MacKay is absolutely awesome and although I have never been there, I fell in love with Edinburgh. As a foreigner I especially loved the accents of the different actors. The only thing which made me give eight instead of ten stars is the plot, because although it is obviously a love story, so not something where you expect action, I thought that not much happened all together. Still it is a nice movie maybe for Sunday afternoons and I would recommend it to other musical fans but also to romantics.

Mike B You know the expression "white people can't dance" – well at least not since Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire. This film is definite proof of that. Dancing is not waving your hands in the air. All the dance scenes look the same – similar to a you-tube flash-mob. Choreography not required.And the singing is worse.Aside from a few comic scenes during the dance hall – this is cloying and predictable – and Boring (capital "B" intended). The characters are un-engaging. It looked at times like a Scottish tourist brochure.Overall this approaches the banal. A musical must have a sense of vitality and an energy force - this was sadly lacking.

crossbow0106 This film is a series of interconnected situations regarding relationships, all based in the same family. Davy and Ally come back from combat, to seemingly the delight of everyone. Ally looks to rekindle his relationship with Liz, who is Davy's sister. Davy meets Liz's best friend Yvonne and they begin a relationship. Liz and Davy's parents Rab and Jean appear very happy about this. There, however, are secrets and actions that threaten to undermine all of the relationships. When the film is set to songs by the Scottish group The Proclaimers (American audiences will know them from their big hit 500 Miles (I'm Gonna Be),sung by the characters and others joining in, the movie is wonderful, it is vibrant and fun, along with sad and even heartbreaking. When the stories are told without music the movie falters, since it becomes almost like a soap opera. However, look past those moments and bask in the great city of Edinburgh and sing along if you can. Its those moments that make this film really worthwhile.
