    The film made an unforgettable impact. The intensity of it was astounding - it was totally gripping. Keeping that intensity throughout was a great achievement. Quite a few in the audience commented that it was complex, and it certainly was in many ways. I hardly took my eyes off the screen but even so it would be useful to pause and rewind some bits to pick out all the detail and the symbolism.

    I loved the start of the film - it really pulled you in. And now I see that all the elements (and the emotions) were there in those first few scenes - the uncertainty, fear, sinister feel, the brutality, desperation and then the love, hope, light, mysticism and spirituality and a momentary feeling of absolute peace. From this the story then unravelled with all this mix of emotions. I felt quite emotionally drained by the end of the evening!! Well done, Ice Neal!

    I enjoyed Eva's Diamond so much and found it riveting from start to finish. I was thinking about it on the train journey home and still am now. Ice Neal's acting teachers must have been so proud of her. I really loved her portrayal of the older, anguished mother, her haunted expression and the way she got down to the nitty-gritty of drama.

    I could tell the audience around me followed the storyline and were equally absorbed. Roby Meola's soundtrack was so important to the film and he did a really great job.

    It was good to see the younger actor Cody Spinks so happy and proud and I shall use his word, it really was 'unbelievable' that Ice Neal has achieved so much, the emotion in her voice as she spoke to the audience made me so happy for her.

    Eva's Diamond portrayed the fight between good and evil well. The supernatural elements made it both interesting and perplexing. Very moving, I really enjoyed that. The film was intense and powerful. It shows the tenacity and perseverance of a mother to get justice for her son, and never giving up on him. It also shows the supernatural elements that made it both interesting and perplexing. When a film utilises supernatural powers - good or evil, it risks confusing in the mind of the viewer aspects of reality that may or may not be real. Someone who believes in the supernatural would find that believable. I find the Christian aspects clearly visible. It is clear that it is a film made by someone who has a supernatural faith like Christianity. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone under 12, mainly because of the scary music that goes with the dark side. Also I debated someone who was a bit disturbed by the mother … ***SPOILERS***. It was seen as a form of torture and as the person said, it is not appropriate for a Christian to torture someone like that to get information. I disagree. I think a desperate mother will do desperate things even sometimes things that may go against her own beliefs or conscience. Having said all that, I think it was a bold film. It was a powerful piece of cinema and it shows that sometimes the resolution to our problems may come from supernatural help, even if we do not recognise such help. God sometimes intervene in the affairs of human beings without we even noticing. These interventions are called miracles and that is what the film sought to portray; a God who intervenes on behalf of those who cry out to him for justice and mercy. Revd Cornelius Henry

    Amazing production! Well done Ice Neal!!!!

    I think she might just see an amazing outcome when wider audience sees "Eva's Diamond". There is something about this film. It opens eyes to many secrets.... and inspires respect for loving mothers everywhere, through the power of her lens.

    This amazing production keeps the audience gripped in a very tense thriller.It manages to touch nerve of a deep emotion. Made on practically no budget at all,it shows determination of a woman,Ice Neal,to see this production through. Watch this film maker! she is going to deliver more magic.

    I enjoyed the intrigue and complexity of the film, understanding Eva's fears and joy, which were represented in the form of Vincent and 'young' Diamond respectively. For Christians, it encourages them to have faith even in the face of tragedy and for non Christians to appreciate spiritually (or karma) of the human spirit's need to survive.

    I enjoyed the film immensely. The performance of the cast was marvellous, particularly of the multi-talented lead actress Ice Neal and 'young' Diamond played by Cody Spinks, a young actor to watch for the future. A thought provoking movie which challenges the audience feelings, willing Eva not to give up. I am looking forward to the next movie from this director/writer. Well done! I will recommend Eva's Diamond to anyone who enjoys intrigue.

    Eva's Diamond, a very intense and deep drama/ mystery thriller with some shocking moments...and some absolutely beautiful and touching scenes ... Taken from real life...with suggestions about another life...I am intrigued! Well done film! Glad I have watched it at its London premiere! Emotionally colorful,deep and intense film. I am truly touched and surprised about this film. I loved the baby scene...How beautiful! A "low budget" film made truly "high class"! Very talented producer and cast" I found the explanation on how Eva came to her diamond nicely shown and explained while it unfolded in the film. Good music as well from beginning to end.
