'This is England' is a drama about gangs and politics during 1980s England. The story follows Shaun, a detached 12-year-old whose father died in the Falklands War and who is accepted by a skinhead gang.
It is a raw and powerful film, portraying the brutal nationalist and racist ideals within a skinhead community. I expected it to be a dark ride and it was. While it looked relatively low-budget its actors and story made it strong, and ultimately this was a gritty and impressive movie. 7/10
I thought that this movie was alright a bit boring a time but it had some really good, confrounting scenes which made the film
ReplyDeleteYeah I see what you mean. Like I said it was a really no-nonsense film which I think presented the characters and story in a realistic way, and that includes boring scenes and dramatic ones.
