Faintheart

…By Odin, it’s a totally unexpected hoot.

- Elliott Noble, SKY MOVIES

By day, Richard (Eddie Marsan) is a lowly serf in a DIY store. But by weekend, he is Iron Age warrior Readmund the Just, a key player on Worcester’s battle re-enactment scene. Alas, his wife (Jessica Hynes) and son have had enough of his Norse nonsense. Forced to move in with his Trekkie pal (Ewen Bremner), our hero faces a real fight to win back fair maiden. Created through Myspace as “the world’s first fully user-generated feature film”, what could have been a case of ‘too many cooks’ turns out to be a cheerfully corny, laugh-out loud treat. (Sky.com)
