80% nonsense!

Started off interesting and the ending was endearing.. the middle 80% was absolute rubbish, nonsensical, completely pointless and sometimes awkward to watch. I love quirky low key films if they have something to give but this movie was highly disappointing. Would have been so much better as a 20min short. No wonder no one has heard of it!

A creditable performance from Mackenzie Crook. Recommended!

'Abraham's Point' (2008): Wyndham Price (Director), Mackenzie Crook, Christian McKay & Mariah Gale. Rating 5/10Firstly, this is a good film. My review rating of 5/10 suggests an interesting film worthy of viewing. It is heart-warming, despite some scenes of mild violence. It is only likely to cause offence to purveyors of antiques.'Abraham's Point' was a film that seemed to have disappeared without trace, hence my review. Quickly shot, with a limited budget, it has interesting characters and a positive message. Whether the ending is 'happy', I'll leave for the viewer to determine. Rather intriguingly, there are no 'customary' reviews of this movie that I could find online. This is the first IMDb review & there is nothing in Wikipedia or on the Rotten Tomatoes site.Mackenzie Crook's character, Comet Snape, seems to be a rather inept French polisher for a small antiques business with an ability to pay in excess of £2,000 at auction on a whim/compulsion. He unconventionally acquires a rather questionable longcase clock, whose glazed dial door mysteriously loses it glass during its travels. An advisor from the antiques trade was seemingly lacking.Comet is an endearing, traumatised character beset by insomnia. The cause of this is revealed as the movie progresses. Comet goes on an unconventional journey back to his parental home in Wales, bearing the aforementioned bulky timepiece. He faces adversity, supported at times by noteworthy cinematography. 'Abraham's Point' is a positive story of reconciliation, a story in which even the seemingly unredeemable 'criminal' Robert (Christian McKay) gets to manifest his intrinsic decency. A special mention for Mariah Gale as the enchanting Ellie.Recommended. A positive and thought-provoking film from a relatively unknown director.Mark Twitchett 07/20

A homecoming film

Well I love any tale connected to Wales &this storyline was a long & winding road of redemption from London to Wales with some beautiful scenery thrown in! It's a Jack Kerouak 'On the Road' tale meets 'How Green Was My Valley' as you learn something about Comet & his travelling companions.Comet Snape (McKenzie Crook) is an insomniac making a living as a French polisher, he tries therapy (Harriet Walter) but his sleepless nights continue. Then after some twists of his character, we see him travelling with a clock & meeting several people who help him find his way. Joseph Millson (Casino Royale) plays a character who has lived quite a different lifestyle but helps him to mellow along the road, along with Christian McKay as Robert a pianist come piano restorer.The closer Comet gets to home the more you see why he's an insomniac!Lovely heartwarming ending though!
