Scrapper (2023)
7/10
Better than expected.

I saw this for a secret screening so I had no idea what that movie was about.

The beginning was a bit slow as it's just follow a child living on her own. It then gets interesting when the father comes in.

It has a lot of cute moments as the dad tries to bond with his daughter that rejects him. He even helps her to steal a bike to be closer to her.

I'm glad the father was a normal guy and not an alcoholic or drugged man.

Pro: The little girl acting was spot on! What a find! She was amazing on every scene and delivered her line with so much ease and emotion.

The rest of the cast was good too.

The cinematography was perfect for that movie.

Con: The camera work. Especially in the begining, the director confused music videos and movie for a bit. But then while the movie went along, it stopped and went back to normal.

I was hoping a bit more tension (like the dad has to leave and it broke her but he changed his mind and stays with her.

Overall as I'm not usually into British movie this one was good to see, mainly due to the protagonist acting.
