That is all.

No seriously, I don’t think I have any intelligent comments to make. I’m fairly certain he filmed this in between SGU and Once Upon a Time, so he’s like half Rush and half season one Gold and oh sweet merlin he’s attractive.

I mean Lachlan is a drunk which isn’t attractive, so I kinda get why his ex-wife kicked him out of bed. I’m not sure if he did his kid a favor or not by staying away, I can kinda see both sides of it. Maybe it would have made him grow up a bit if he’d stayed in contact because I think deep down he didn’t want to disappoint his daughter. Although then again, his guilt over his brothers death would possibly have made him self destruct anyway. Poor guy 🙁

Oh and I can’t believe they spent the entire film with him fighting against being deported, only to end with presumably him getting deported. I hope he apologized to his boss, he was a decent guy who only ever tried to help him and wow how expensive was that guitar? If he gave his kid $600 and that was only a few bills off the clip that was an awful lot of money.

It’s what I call a ‘slice of life’ film, it just sort of ends. I would have preferred either something coming up so he wasn’t deported, or seeing him actually going back to the UK and a little bit of the consequences of that. I would have liked more of a definitive ending anyway. This kind of movie isn’t my cup of tea at all.

So once again I don’t recommend this as a movie, but I do seriously recommend it for fans of Robert Carlyle. Excuse me while I go find all the Lachlan gifsets on tumblr and add them to my queue. Oh and I make no apologies for the gifspam at the start of my post, I think it makes my point most eloquently.
