I found it heavy going to watch this film at some points but it really brings you to see what is right and wrong. Really good, funny in some parts and touching in others. Great!!!

Brilliant. The only problem is it could of been abit longer but other than that it was amazing

This trully and utterly had me gripped from start to finish, whether being encapsulated by the fantastic story line and diversity of characters on display to the perfect choice of music (toots and the Maytals amongst others are now part of my I tunes repetoire just off the back of this film) and setting with some "stella" performances given by some very promising up and coming home grown talent. Shane Meadows has well and trully cemented himself in my collection with any new material being noted and bought on first sight. This is England is a insightful piece of film making providing diversity in its most hard hitting topic. A real "make yout think" film a look at Britain only twenty years ago, have we come any further or have only certain things changed? Are we kidding ourselves or do we feel more proud or further apart as a nation? Many more are certainly thrown in there and I think young Mr. Turgoose could have a very prosperous future under Meadows if he keeps up the good work

This film is awesome, if your easily shocked and sensitive about certain subjects it's not for you but thats the point of the film. The acting is first class, the whole story is brill and is an advertisement to Shane Meadows undoubted talent as a film maker. I have recommended this film to everybody i know as a must see. The whole feel and realism of the setting,(Thatcher's GLORY YEARS!!!! HA WHAT A JOKE!!!) is great. Do yourself a favour and buy this film

Brilliant film and great actors. My cousin borrowed this dvd after saying that its really good. I totally agree with him and would reccomend this film. Maybe not to people who feel uncomfortable with violence. The only downside to this film was the racism which kind of made me feel uncomfortable.Deffinatly worth buying but not for the more sensitive people.

I watched this film for Media Studies and it was brillant. Though it isn't the type of film that will have a gripping the seat and it isn't overly excited it's worth watching for the shock factor, (the end part mainly). It will have anyone who remembers the 80's smiling with the opening.

watched this film countless times, i deffinately recommend it to anyone!

don,t waste your money poor film.waiting for something to happen not much did got bored.

ah this film didnt really do it for me, no real storyline until the guy gets outta prison and by then i had lost interest!

I just watched this on FilmFour tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm too young to remember the 80s but it clearly depicted the era well and the acting was brill. Some parts made me laugh and some parts almost made me cry (I probably would've if there weren't others in the room). A great drama and I would recommend it to anyone, truly a British masterpiece.
