  • British as a chip butty, Shane Meadows is just about as tasty (and probably about as good for you). His A Room for Romeo Brass is one of the underrated gems of the last ten years - read more »

    as it says on the cover ' one of the best british films in years'

    in fact i think i would probably go as far as saying, this is one of the best films i have seen in years.....full stop. now i understand its not going to be everyones cup of tea, but for those out there who like a great film with some good old fashioned brit-grit watch it! it's one of those films where you dont quite know what to do with yourself after it. i mean i watched this film and thought it was great 3 days after watching it, i thought it was amazing - reason being, i kept on thinking about it, it kept on coming back into my head, i think i was a bit traumatised by it to be honest, but if that isnt the sign of a good film i dont know what is.

    full of grit and grim, very good acting, and a bit of humor thrown in....watch this!
