Ashens and the Quest for the Gamechild (2013)
Ashens hits the big time...well sort of.
As a big fan of Ashens post to this soon-to-be hit feature film, I, like many YouTubers longed and anticipated the release for 'Ashens and the Quest for the Gamechild'.
And notably of course the film features Stuart Ashen, everybody's favourite cherished quaint, mundane cynic chronicling the country in hope for a tacky collectible gaming device. What's to hate about this description? The plot is simple yet effective, the characters are enjoyable and performances are very comedic and OTT (With a pinch of Edgar Wright mechanics thrown in there for good measure). With some great cameos too, blink and you might miss them.
The film translates well from a proverbial YouTube episode to movie calibre very smoothly and you can't sense any desperation that anybody in the film is slumming it merely for a paycheck.
Only downside perhaps is the abrupt ending, which I admittedly longed for some kind of witty punchline/inside joke/reference or something. Then again, it was 80+ minutes of free entertainment, complain I shall not and neither should you.
Conclusively, a credible and plausible effort and let's face it the best British film since Hot Fuzz, bar none. (Keith Lemon: The Film anyone? I jest) By far one of the best free films I've ever watched.
