Mixed genres in a film is it such a good thing?

A long way down is a different kind of film I will give you that and is based on the novel by Nick Hornby. Not only does it have such a mix range of age in the cast, it has such mad moments that you think are daft but end up working out really well. The film explores four people who meet on a roof in London planning to kill themselves, which does seem quite stupid that four people would all have the same idea, same time and same place.

I think at the start it's kind of hard to tell where there taking this and you are thinking what is happening, but director Pascal Chaumiel surprisingly puts it together quite well, I do think that some parts are a bit too daft for me and I didn't like it when they had a serious scene and ruined it with a joke. Other than that this dark comedy is totally different to any other film and shows a different style to a narrative that can have comedy, romance and drama. The mix genres of comedy and drama don't always work the way you want and this has just that in some cases but overall each part of the film is separated and it knows when it wants a comedy effect involved on a dark subject of matter.

 It is strange seeing Pierce Brosnan in a comedy compared to other roles we have seen him in and it doesn't really work but he plays his role well. The stand out role in this film has to be Aaron Paul and Imogen Poots these two together just work, they have recently done Need For Speed as well and I can see future projects with them for sure. The film in General is very good in my opinion with some dull moments but I would recommend you go see it because it's a good watch and although the subject might put you off don't be fooled by it. And its always good to see a good British film with new and old actors paired up.
