Submarine: Film Review

Writer-director Richard Ayoade's feature debut is witty and quirky, with a gripping performance by Paddy Considine.

PARK CITY — Sundance Film Festival, Spotlight — A coming-of-age tale full of wit and panache, Submarine identifies strongly with its misfit hero but spreads its sympathies around as well. Not as pushily entertaining as some films of its type, it may not be a hit but should make a strong showing in theaters.
