i don't get it

is there osme peice of the puzzle i'm missing here or what?
i was about the same age back when the film is set and i remember all the things that went on, but what is the film trying to say?

 

its giving an insite into that generation for the new generation........i think

 

did milk survive then or what?

 

Like most films mate, its an interesting story set in a particular era?!

What's to get?

 

thought film was crap really

 

i liked it, reminds me of old times

 

a hard film to understand in some ways .. loved it when i saw it, but i think it shows the reality in someways about growing up back then...

 

I liked it and yer milk lived. The young lads mam says hes going to be ok near the end.

 

the only thing i saw about it was that even bad people repent and that sometimes you are just too young to understand

a totaly different film to the one i thought i was going to watch based on some reviews on here in the past

 

Very very good film and for anyone who grew up in a working class environment in the early 80's it holds a special appeal.

It raises the questions for the young lad and him coming to terms with loosing his father in the Falklands war

It also raises the problem faced by the skinhead movement which was never traditionally a racist culture, in fact one embracing black music such as reggae and Ska hence Milky, but nationalists from the National Front using the look etc for their own ends, the footage of the meeting they have in the remote pub where then NF official comes in his XJS to address the crowd could be today with the BNP

And then you get back to the whole relationship and struggle between the young lad and the racist skinhead

Especially at the end when he realises that its wrong and not what he wants, good triumphing over bad.

 

Good soundtrack as well. Great 80's tunes and a couple of good classical tracks.

Good flim!

 

film was okay,best bit was when the kids older girlfriend offered him her tits to suck on..............

 

anyone remember a film called made in britain about a skinheed called trevor ?

 

Great film, Shane Meadows directed it, did a top job. His other film Dead Mans Shoes is definitely worth a watch, fantastic plot .

 

Got it on video somewhere

 

Had a couple of Exploited tunes in it iirc.

i see you live in gods country

dont ruin it and say your a mag

 

Dead mans shoes is a great movie i thought.

 

same here mate a load of shit, i binned mine

 

Got the DVD off play.com a few months ago

Well worth a watch

 

dead man shoes is an exceptional film, especially when he is standing at the door in that gas mask and one of them fellas sees him while he is off his head on pills, and when he walks into that cafe and says to him "what you fu**kin lookin at" and he replies "you, you fuc*in cu*t" brilliant!!

 

this is england: i thought it was over rated rubbish ,talked up by media lovies trying to understand the working class and race issues.

 

yea, at the end his mum says
'Milky is gonna be ok'

the film is about the young kiddy being shown A WAY of living,
and even at young age, deciding and realising that its not for him. IMO.

 

yeah Nick Griffin turned up to a local meet in a nice M5

 

i bought it at asda for 3 quid, and it wasnt even worth that.

total shit film

 

dead mans shoes is an awesome film! want to watch it now!!!!!!

 

dead mens shoes was filmed where i grew up. i now my mates sister let her house to them to film in it lol it was a right mess and when you see the main man in the garage block i had a few of those lock ups

 

I think the film is nothing other than a glimps into life in the 80"s for a working class family

If you look to deep into it you wont enjoy it

I thought it was a good film

 

Good film

 

'okay' film, seemed like the film had just got goin when it finished, worth a watch but hardly ground breaking imo.
