I'm sort of impressed, sort of not impressed. I really liked Last Resort, but My Summer of Love seems a step backward. On the one hand, it seems a more ambitious project to take on (adolescence, sexuality and religious faith), but on the other hand, it's far less stylized and more visually ordinary than his first film.
I hate imagining films without their core, primary elements, but, like Shane Meadows' work, I'd be interested to see how his films hold up without the presence of Paddy Considine, who is, with Christian Bale, my favourite actor currently working.
His next project is in post-production, and stars what many would consider an attractive British cast. I have little hope for it, though. He's also got an adaptation of bestseller and critically acclaimed novel Vernon God Little.
