Its a very different film than those two, its more about racial tensions in England and the rise of the skinheads in the 1980s.

I saw a trailer for it last year. It looked really interesting, but I'm not sure if there were any theatres in the United States (where I live) that were showing it. Lab392

I dont think there were any I know of, none of Los Angeles anyway. I got it from netflix.

it's great, wouldnt call it best of the decade thoughmaccer101

I didnt say the best, I said one of the best. There are plenty of others I prefer.

Ohh wait... I have seen it. It was somewhat disturbing if I remember. Some group of unstable skin heads go around causing **** don't they?

Lol, silly Englanders. Movies are made in Hollywood. Not England!

Stick to tea and crumpets. Leave the excitement and action to us. ;)

Yeah, its about their relationship with a little kid and how their antics get out of hand.

It's an interesting film, but not really one of my favorites of the decade.ernie1989

I think I really connected with it because I am from that kind of area the film portrays. I didnt see that kind stuff in the film though.

I totally agree. I even PM'ed you about because I was floored. This is England >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> American History X. I had never seen Stephen Graham in anything outside of Snatch, he was absolutely incredible in this.crucifine

He is one of the many underrated british actors that dont get much attention in the U.S. Paddy Considine is another one, though he was in the Bourne Ultamatum.

Get of the forums. Go eat your Mcdonalds.

I found it too vulgar and "gritty" for my liking. I realise that that's the whole point, but it just seemed to me like the writers and directors wanted to parade around as much scum on screen as possible to the point where i genuinely started to feel repulsed by some of the characters.Ninja-Hippo

I only watched the last bit but that seemed to be the most uncomfortable part by my best guess.

I think the word "uncomfortable" sums it up perfectly. Obviously most good films deal with unpleasant issues, but in this case it just went a little too far (for me at least) and didnt make for an enjoyable viewing experience at all.

It's natural to really enjoy films that you can relate to. That's why my favorite films of all time are ones I can closely relate to.

Green Street had much better fights and action. Football Factory was just as good but the future/past flash back of him get ****kicked was annoying.

I'm glad my obviously sarcastic, completely idiotic rant pissed off one guy. My troll work is done. My God i didn't think it would be that easy.

I like how easily I'm labeled ignorant, then accosted with an almost incoherent rant, butchering the English language, while spouting the American stereotype. Way to stand up to the "ignorant American" XD. Ignorance fighting ignorance is key I guess.

Sarcasm my friends, learn it.

Another person capable of coherent thought. You and Leejohnson should start a club.

There's a difference between sarcasm and bad taste. You can say offensive things and then say you were just kidding and didnt meant it, but that doesnt undo the fact that you said something offensive. It's not the responsibility of others to read offensive material and realise that the write doesnt mean it. It's up to you to make your intentions clear or better yet, not post offensive content in the first place.Ninja-Hippo

LOL, tea and crumpets upsets you that much? Geez, I must have really hurt your national pride when I said you drink hot flavored water, and baked bread XD!!

You didnt hurt my feelings at all. I even posted saying it's likely you were just joking. :? I'm simply telling you that stereotypes are never a good idea, even when joking. And you cant have a pop at other people for not knowing it was a joke. It's better to just avoid that sort of thing in the first place.

I really don't care when people can't spell properly. It's not a problem, I misspell things myself! *gasp*. But when you can't even use proper punction, or even basic grammer, it's hard to not laugh. And I thought the American education system was bad!

I know. I know. O god I apologize. I know every English man, woman, and child must have been so upset at my "tea and crumpets" joke. I apologize, forgive me dear England! I'm HORRIBLE, I'm EVIL.

Let this be a lesson to all! Tea and crumpets are off limits! It's sexist, racist, rude, belligerent, ignorant, and offensive.

I'm sorry.
