Clean Barry

About This Movie

So, Clean Barry is this quirky take on the crime comedy genre, set against the backdrop of COVID in Merseyside. The film follows the first detective tasked with navigating the bizarre challenges brought about by the pandemic. It’s a bit of a satirical look at the absurdities of policing during strange times. The pacing feels almost erratic at times, which kind of adds to the chaotic vibe. The performances are solid, especially from the lead—there's a mix of humor and genuine moments that catch you off guard. Practical effects are minimal, but the cinematography captures the deserted streets nicely, giving it this eerie yet comedic atmosphere. It's distinctive for how it blends serious themes with a lighthearted approach, which isn’t easy to pull off.
