Last night I saw Fish Tank at the theater. All in all, a pretty decent and honest effort from Andrea Arnold. Most of the camerawork was okay. At first when she's dancing in the empty space, I wasn't impressed with the whiteness. But then again later what seems like really darker than usual (or poor) lighting when she's with Connor on the couch sort of works well. The camerawork was a little jumpy. It was supposed to be, but it was a little bit much at times.
The dialog wasn't that bad. Although we were given what we wanted from the premise, the rest isn't that predictable.
I'm sure Andrea Arnold might have something nice up her sleeve in the future.
