Room review

A young mother and her son live in their own tiny world.

Room review

Irish director Lenny Abrahamson returns after the triumph of Frank for an utterly unique tale which has seen the filmmaker deservedly thrust onto the world stage.

Room is fresh from a Golden Globes win for lead actress Brie Larson and it’s well deserved, with her performance helping to bring together the many ferocious emotions the film plays with during its nearly two hour running time. And she's matched step for step by the young narrator of the piece, played by Jacob Tremblay. He's raw and real and mesmerising as young Jack in a role which will be remembered as one of the best child performances of all time.
