Screen Daily Reviews 'SPACESHIP'
March, 2016
'It takes a certain sense of mischief to name a central character Lucidia in a film which makes a virtue of its incoherence. Spaceship, the bold debut debut feature from former Screen International Star Of Tomorrow Alex Taylor, is a day glo fever-dream of a movie. It’s a sensory assault, a window into the world of a group of teen misfits who themselves long to venture into other parallel dimensions. It takes its cast of exotic adolescent outsiders, with their talk of unicorns and aliens, black holes and rainbows, at face value, with no ironic distance or metaphorical raised eyebrows.'

March, 2016
Meet the Spacekids -
''They’re a wild bunch: sloppy-haired Luke (Lucian Charles Collier, a reincarnated Christian Slater) zips around on a sputtering motorbike and gets busy in crashed helicopters; brace-faced Tegan (Lara Peake) longs for the perfect high; and then then there’s Alice (a seductive Tallulah Rose Haddon), who drags her leather-clad boyfriend around on a leash and may or may not be a vampire.''

November, 2014
Petros Silvestros' Mike is a carefully composed film that is reluctant to dispense too many details, inviting us to partake in the protagonist's worry instead: together with Mike, we conjure all kinds of scenarios as Jack's absence becomes more and more alarming and our urge to find out what happened to him increases.
A short but powerful study in suspense, Mike won the Best Short Film award at the 64th Berlinale. We asked director Petros Silvestros a few questions...

REVIEW OF 'MIKE' AT RAINDANCE
September, 2014
"Lucian Charles Collier is a fantastic young British talent. His impressively natural and instantly likable on-screen approach, as the titular character, is reminiscent of fast-rising Brit star Jack O’Connell."
8 minutes of watching Mike, was satisfying(-ly) unsatisfying. The beauty and difficulty of a short is capturing so much in little time, all whilst attempting to engage the audience and convey a precise emotion that feature films have the luxury of exploring and dissecting over 100 minutes more...
