A very poignant film highlighting the major problem with gun crime in London. If you have just recently enjoyed the British Channel 4 TV series Top Boy you will see where it pretty much came from.

Ashley Walters plays an estate thug who has just been released from Gaol. He has a troubled relationship with his family and friends who start a tug of war between him relapsing back into his bad ways or finding a new life.

His younger brother finds his gun and terrible things start to happen. I won’t ruin the film for you by explaining too much more….

An interesting new breed of films coming out of England which ask very important social questions, ok so its all been done before (remember Stanley Baker in Violent playground in the sixties? David Mcallum letting rip with a machine gun?) but I guess each new generation has a unique take on its problems.
