One of the better coming out/coming-of-age dramas I've seen, thanks to a superb central duo and a pleasant mix of snooty comedy and warm drama. Dating Amber is a small, somewhat inconspicuous film, and it's very possible that it will fade into obscurity without making too much of a splash, but if you're looking for a successful dramedy, don't let it slip by. Fionn O'Shea and Lola Petticrew are both hilarious and endearing, the chemistry between them is perfect, and they have no trouble carrying the weight of the film. The comedy is a little crude but perfectly executed, and it's balanced well with the drama. Certainly not the most dashing film, but it's not as needy, and thus a lot better than most of its peers.
