One of the best films ever made. Such a powerful story with superb acting. The opening alone really sets the scene to make you feel like you’re back in the 80’s.
Shane Meadows is undoubtedly one of the greatest British film makers of all time, these films are up their with guy Richie’s, hands down. From dead man shoes, to the entire TIE series upto 90’s, it’s some the best acting and raw British culture based films in history. Americans need to take a few leafs from us.
lizard guy yeah and you probs wouldnt survive 10 minutes in an area like that, that makes you a shithouse sir, you have more in common with them houses than you think
Fuck me that opening is grim - you'd think England was in the 3rd world based on this movie 🤣. For those who've never been, it isn't. They don't all live on council estates. Believe it or not there are many beautiful towns, cities and villages there, not to mention beautiful countryside.
It's is the role of the common wealth, empowered by the common law, to chase a better society, deserved of by its people. The word empire may no longer live, but its legacy lives on and the great good that it achieved reverberates today stronger than ever.
To all My Brothers and Sisters - My Number is one time, two times, three times, hibbie jibby nada nada nada - I'm not a fool to hurt myself. What's my number? I said YEAH! Hibby, Jibby, nine nine, nine...na na na..
the thing that still stands out to me is how shockingly a batshit crazy fool in South America suddenly invaded sovereign British territory and thought it would just be fine 😂🤦🏻♂️ madness...

Love how shane meadows helps you understand living in that era with archive footage
the best movie opening ever ! (along with 'Dog day afternoon', 'Soylent green' and 'Bonnie & Clyde')
Cap Alvin and the chipmunks hit different
And what about Scarface’s intro?😂

Fantastic everything, the beginning tells the story of the 80s That THATCHER created

Fall of an empire
Empire hasn't fallen, though. It's just called the Commonwealth now.
TheTypicalMan missed the point of the film
