This movie has early close resemblances to God's Own Country with a different back story but unfortunately it never gets off the ground. Promises are not fulfilled. Like the weather in the scenes, its a damp squib of a movie.
The beginning is overly slow and meanders meaninglessly to nowhere before breaking down completely half way through the movie. Stupid characters who seem to have no purpose and garner no sympathy.
Probably worked as a novel but this screen adaptation was pointless.
