Although a quite dark and depressing storyline, I found the movie gripping. Bringing the story into the 1960s for me made it more entertaining. I was a teenager in the 60s and being into the whole mod/scooter/seaside thing made it very nostalgic. I thought the film was very well made with the fasion, music and whole culture being admirably portrayed. Sam Riley played Pinky really well and just like His portrayal of Ian Curtis in Control, I rate him as one of Britains brightest rising stars today. I would like to see him in more movies as I think he has enormous talent. Phil Davis for me was as brilliant as ever. Whatever role he gets to play he plays it with such energy and is always convincing as is John Hurt and Helen Mirren. For me howevr, the real star of the movie was the army of classic scooters parading along Eastbourne seafront, As the saying goes, "Nostalgia aint what it used to be" A classic British movie up there with Quadrophenia, Alfie and The Italian JobRead full review
