'Perhaps the greatest compliment I can pay actor turned director Philip Barantini’s low-budget Brit pic Boiling Point (co-written with James Cummings) is to say that I frequently forgot I was watching a brilliantly orchestrated one-shot film.' - Mark Kermode, The Guardian

‘Every time Stephen Graham is on screen in Philip Barantini’s Boiling Point the question reasserts itself: do dramatic events happen to him or does he make them happen?’ - Tom Shone, The Times

'What makes the film work, however, is that Barantini stitches all these tiny truths together with a restless, roaming camera and a central story about Andy’s spiralling cash problems and a snooty restaurant critic (Lourdes Faberes) who has just turned up, unannounced, on this night of all nights. - It’s an utterly convincing and immersive experience.' - Kevin Maher, The Times
