Caught this at the London Film Festival this year. It's a very clever concept and it is executed quite well, but it does drag in places. Definitely worth seeing, but don't expect too much.

I can't help but feel that a large chunk of the movie is just going to be trying to explain why people would actually do such a completely bonkers and stupid thing like shrinking yourself. Maybe that's just the way the trailers are cut, but the story itself just seems a bit dull, which is a shame because the cast is really good.

Yes, is there or was there, ever a better frontman for any band ever, better than Dave Byrne. I don’t think so.

Yes, there were/are many. Not got time to start a list (Byrne was OK, btw, but the best ever?..........no way)

Byrne is an utter genius and peerless imho. St Vincent his protégé.
