Shane Meadows' recreation of 80s working class England is totally on the money. Click for our verdict, the trailer and tell us what you think.

Met Shane Meadows for 30 seconds once, seemed like a very down to earth sort of bloke :-)

I don't really go for these gritty true-to-life dramas

Nil by mouth ...
Secrets and Lies ...
Trainspotting ...

I prefer movies that take me somewhere that's not just around some dark corner ...

It is an excellent film. Although, I would say that, Dead Man's Shoes and A Room For Romeo Brass are two of my favourite films and hold pride of place in my DVD collection.
It's a typical Meadows plot, starts off with some innocent fun but then starts to draw you into the dark storyline bubbling underneath. Superb!
