I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

The dialog delivery was awkward and unnatural. I get the feeling that they were trying to make it sound more "natural" with the actors stepping on each other's lines, but it just sounds like they don't know their parts so well. It could just be bad acting. Maybe the actors were attempting to ad-lib. I don't know.The writer has low expectations for the audience's understanding and feels he has to spell everything out in the dialog. The racist kids walks out of the back room, it's pretty obvious that it's because he doesn't like the new Muslim girl. The Muslim girl says "Why did he just leave like that without saying anything?". Duh.And I can't understand most of what the two chav prostitutes are saying. That's what you are, by the way, when you get all dressed up to sit by the side of the road waiting to get picked up for sex with random guys in their cars. A hooker.It's not a terrible film, but it's not exactly an original story either.

First and foremost, this is only my 2nd post ever and I've been using this website for well over 2 years now. My point is, something has to stir me up, to write a comment.Well this film has, and more to the point some of the negative posts by others. Firstly, its not a classic. Secondly and more importantly, its nowhere near belonging on the scrap heap either. As the other posts have explained the outline of the plot, I refrain from repeating. What I will say though, is how surprised I was at how good I felt this film was upon its conclusion. I've watched so many films over the years, and have seen nearly all of the films in the top 250 on this website. Like I've said, its not a classic, but the film has a really good effort at offering a powerful and compelling story about issues in modern Britain. Comments made about the standard of the acting, are at the very least harsh, and seem to miss the point. The actors are indeed supposed to be young adults from Blackburn starting life out in the working world. It would be inappropriate to be acted with the grandeur of a Hollywood line-up. They give it a really good go and certain scenes are to a degree shocking and indeed quite moving.No, its not a tear-jerker. It just has a powerful, if not slightly plagiarised plot, leaving you feeling better for indulging in its 86 minutes of worthwhile subject. Its a good British film you should watch with an open mind and an hour and a half of uninterrupted time.

Thought this film was excellent. I actually grew up with and am still good friends with one of the cast ("Ryan Leslie - Sean") but this does not make my opinion byast, well maybe a little bit.. But really, it's good to see a film about good ol' Northern England with a subject which everyone can relate to and understand, although the subject itself isn't good, i think Dominic Savage did a great job to use such a delicate subject and make an excellent film from it. I've heard through the grapevine (Not confirmed) that Dominic is going to be working on another film which is also about true to life subjects and how one event can wreak havoc on a number of people. Let's hope that he does and hope it will be as good as this one.

I saw this movie recently, and really enjoyed they storyline. The clash of cultures was greatly portrayed, and it is a story that some will be able to relate to. I felt that the actors chosen to portray the characters did an excellent job. I enjoyed how everything in the film was connected in someway. For example: certain characters were in someway connected to somebody else and so on. It was also good to see how certain characters related to certain situations and how their beliefs changed throughout the film. It is a great movie, and i urge anyone who enjoys serious story lines to have a look, and you'll see what a great film it is.
