PREVIEW: I Give It A Year (15)


From Dan Mazer,writer of Bruno and Borat, comes his directorial debut I Give It A Year, starring a slew of top British talent including Rafe Spall, Rose Byrne and Stephen Merchant.

Since they met at a party, ambitious high–flyer Nat and struggling novelist Josh have been deliriously happy despite their differences. Josh is a thinker, Nat‘s a doer, but the spark between them is undeniable. Their wedding is a dream come true, but family, friends and even the minister who marries them aren‘t convinced that they can last. With their first anniversary approaching, neither wants to be the first to give up, but will they make it? A charming British comedy full of genuine laughs.

As the first British comedy of the year, it delivers plenty of laughs. Full of typically awkward family situations and recognisable characters, this a film that will keep you giggling.



*Dan Mazer's comedy about a couple who got married too quickly is both funny and plausible, if slightly constricted by its romcom template*
The Guardian


*Spall and his co-star Rose Byrne are two incredibly likeable comic performers, and Dan Mazer's cheerfully abrasive capitalises on that quality to tell a story that might otherwise have been too sour to swallow*
Daily Telegraph
