關於這部電影

After being inspired to write a list of everything they want to see and do before they turn 30, two unlikely best friends decide to partner up in business to make their childhood dream a reality... Scott (Richard Mason) and Sid (Tom Blyth) are isolated, underachieving and a little lost when Scott transfers to Sid's school as a teen. Sid is the withdrawn, awkward son of an alcoholic mother and absent father, who just wants to work hard, get through his exams and escape into his own life. Scott, meanwhile, is an unloved foster child who's been expelled from multiple schools, rootless and uncontainable. Despairing of the compromise and limited ambitions around them, and in defiance of the low expectations that everyone has for them, Scott and Sid write a list of goals and begin pursuing each one in turn to create a better life. Neither receives much encouragement from their parents or teachers, but as their friendship takes root they find something in each other that enables them to glimpse a bigger goal. The withdrawn, overly serious Sid is inspired by Scott's wild and untamed spirit, while Scott draws strength from Sid's boundless work ethic and determination to get ahead. They become 'Dreamchasers', building their whole lifestyle and ideology around pushing themselves farther and faster than anyone expects. Fuelled by ambition and entrepreneurial spirit they launch two successful businesses while still at school, and by their late teens they're reaching for the stars - even if it means putting themselves in real danger from gangsters and loan sharks. Based on a true story drawn from the lives of the writer-producer-director team - Scott Elliot and Sid Sadowskyj - this is a film about the themes of hope, ambition and success, set to inspire a new generation. The duo are the film's executive producers, who grew up in Bradford and have written the script, which follows their life through school and into creating their own business dreams.

A marmite movie! I loved it! My friend not so much, if you are a creative or a dreamer this film is for you. If you have a desk job, watch a Marvel lol

This little gem was gripping from the first scene. Me and my bf absolutely loved it. Adorable storyline full of grit and heart. Made me rethink about my own dream list. Great job boys! Living the dream. Inspirational!! :)

Lovely film. I watched it with my little nephew (age 18) not so little who also really enjoyed the film.
