Submarine is devilishly funny, a true gem and I hope it doesn't stay under the radar of most cinema goers for much longer. Trying to date Jordana and reignite the spark between his parents isn't a small task, not that that fazes Oliver. In essence the narrative follows two strands, the relationship between Oliver and Jordana and between Oliver and his family.

A little slow paced on occasion, it could have done with an extra thread of story. Submarine is a simple coming of age story, without the solid plot of the British film veterans. In one such hypothetical situation he sees Jordana (Yasmin Paige) by the shore and runs to her, meanwhile his narration explains that it isn't her standing there, a stranger turns around. The imaginative and peculiar schoolboy analyses everything, often conjuring up fictional events which parody mainstream movies. Casting Craig Roberts as Oliver Tate was a masterstroke and much of the film's success is based on his performance. There are of course obvious jokes throughout, however the true comedy is found in Oliver Tate's voice over and interactions. Understated lines such as "my mum gave a hand job to a mystic" could go unnoticed by an inattentive audience every exchange has a hidden reward if picked up on. Dead pan humour is the order of the day with Submarine. 15-year-old Oliver Tate has two objectives: to lose his virginity before his next birthday, and to extinguish the flame between his mother and an ex-lover.
