Stanley R @RT33505794 06/18/2025 This film is a homage to everything mad-chester and perfectly embodies the life of a group of boys growing up and finding themselves. On top of that I believe that the sound track is one of the best in fill history. For me it's up there with coming of age storys like super bad or stand by me See more GroupMylink G @RT58865027 10/03/2024 Really enjoyed this film made me smile and cry what more do you want from a film! well put together and great acting regards - https://groupmy.link See more isla s @RT89656869 09/03/2022 This is a somewhat nostalgic film about early 90s britpop - more specifically, the 1990 concert by the Stone Roses at Spike Island in Manchester. Its also got a bleak side/aspect to it, with strained parental relationships etc. Regardless, there's definitely a small amount of hope present, which I liked and I liked the energy felt during the snippets of live performances shown at the start of the film. Its quite an urban film, of course, with some drug taking scenes. Some of the characters, while not entirely polite or charming (their lairy lads, of course) they don't seem ultimately bad people. I thought the characterisation was quite good and the cast do a decent job in their portrayals. I thought this was a pretty engrossing watch, certainly surprisingly emotional at times. I enjoyed it and would recommend it. See more 01/12/2021 I just found the main characters really annoying. See more 03/25/2019 The main characters are slightly interesting but the plot has no surprises, boring.
