A story about a bus journey. Just fantastic film making, and an outstandingly magnificent performance by Timothy Spall.
Nothing happens. Just this journey interspersed with flashbacks as to why he is making it.
You may need tissues handy.

Classy film making
Nicely produced movie but ...
... the story of this tenacious old man on his journey to the most southern tip of Britian is ruined by scenes of melodrama and sentimental glop.
I stuck with the movie beause I wanted to see how his journey would conclude. It's most predictable and the story just ends.
This little movie is very watchable and you do get emotionaly involved with the old man and how he will reach his destination.
OAP Love Story. Predictable, but Oscar wordy.
Very enjoyable movie on numerous levels. Timothy Sphall is brilliant. Very predictable in parts and over acted, but it hits the spot.
Oscar worthy from how it's effects people emotionally.
