I have just seen this film as a media project and I am not sure how I am going to right a review that gives the film any credit. This film is apparently a fifteen, however, the part when the young girl gives an older man head, in my opinion sends it soaring into an eighteen. The script was badly written (No offence to Noel Clarke, cause he was great in Doctor Who)the acting was dreadful and I would not recommend this film to anyone. I don't know much about London life and I do respect that these things do go on, but even so it still seemed too dramatised despite being truthful to the book. The only thing that I would give credit to would be the camera work, the camera work was beautifully done, it's ashame that the rest of it didn't come up to scratch.

This film was funny, fresh and (mainly) well-acted. They put up characters on the screen that most people would be able to recognise from their teenage years- all trying to be the man, prove themselves etc but internally confused. ENough times I laughed out loud- because the lines were true. There is a white character called Mooney who is always scared and trying to stop his mates doing stuff, always saying "I'm not scared". There's a scene where this kid tries to buy alcohol from a corner shop though he is obviously underage and calls the Indian shopkeeper "blud". Maybe some of it was far fetched, but most of the voters can't have seen it. Peopl say it is trying to be City of God but that is not really true. City of God is about life is a tough barrio, Kidulthood is set in Notting Hill, where very rich characters live alongside less well off people and both are seen on screen. Definitely worth going to see.

Kidulthood is an energetic snap shot of wasted youth in London that's flawed, but definitely interesting. For the most part, the young cast (except for a very hammy jamie winstone) give strong, naturalistic performances-particularly noel clarke whos shocking turn as the local badman sam, will instantly make you forget clarkes "oafish boyfriend" routine on doctor who. What gives the performances a higher level of authenticity is the slang and profanity heavy dialogue that serves as an accurate representation of how the kids talk these days (you don't know how old i feel writing that!). However the films mission to keep things as raw and gritty as possible ends up as its down fall- the script tries so hard to make the kids seem so reckless and hedonistic that the trouble they get into just gets unrealistic and shocking for the sake of being shocking after a while. Also, the story is very predictable- you will know how this one turns out , not even halfway through its running time . Kidulthood doesn't come close to being as good as the likes of city of god or La haine, but its a well acted drama that I have to commend for trying to show a side of London that many other local films choose to ignore.

This film sends out the completely wrong idea about British youth culture. Yes many people in Britain are and behave like the characters in this film but many more are well rounded and respectful individuals who should not be judged by the antics of the minority. Every story in this repulsive film sickens me, while it may represent everyday life it certainly is not something that should be shown in cinemas. Why reward such anti-social behaviour by showcasing it on film. The language used is repulsive and the sexual content goes way beyond a 15 certificate surely. Overall a horrible film that paints Britain in a very bad light.

Best movie I've seen in years! Everyone did a fantastic job in making this a realistic and moving film. The storyline addresses the universal struggles that teens experience and made me think deeply about the problems we all face. What I liked best was the willingness to address issues that many people try to ignore (like they don't exist). Seriously, how many times do parents turn a blind eye to their kids activities? Was their childhood that long ago that they can't remember? Finally someone is noticing! We need more of this fresh and inventive approach to film making. If it doesn't get to the US, it will be our loss. Make a point of seeing this one, it is totally worth it. I'm so proud of you, Huds! If I could, I'd fly over and sit through it 20 times over.

Awful - there's nothing more that can possibly be said, this film doesn't deserve the time. I wouldn't even bother trying - bad script, bed acting and I couldn't understand half of what was said. It was a joke - there were only eight other people in the cinema with me when I went and they all laughed their way through and the comments were all 'that's the best comedy I've ever seen'. I was appalled that I spent eight pounds and an hour and a half of my time. I can honestly say that this is THE worst film I've ever seen. Some films I would say it was up to the individual to decide, but I can't understand how ANYBODY would like this film (if it can even be called that). AWFUL, AWFUL, AWFUL

I have seen a bundle to Brit flicks that show a hyped by stylish glamorised side of London . Should be Lock Stock , or Snatch , or maybe even Notting Hill these movies have always shown the romantic side of London . However that Ladies and Gents is only the sugar coated topping , there is another world underneath that what is known to most of us who grew up on the streets of London as the real world . The director of Kidulthood does a masterful job giving us a vision of the urban hell-hole that we have all come to know ! The social issues that are highlighted in this film are spot on , whether it be the drug abuse , teenage pregnancies or the ever looming threat of the gang culture with the idiotic craze which is known as Happy slapping .We have all read about , seen it and, probably worst experienced it . Kidulthood presents to the viewer a true , grim , depiction of a life a 15 year old black teenager Trife and his life growing up in the tough neighbourhood and school where words come cheap .We are taken into his world for just 1 day and meet a whole host of characters who fit into the doomed path of life probably just like Trife . The acting was over the top brilliant to the point where to me personally it felt that it was not a film but you were watching someone's life unfold in front of you as the director chose's location's that were truly urban nitty and gritty to the point that you don't need to marvel at the breath taking scenery , you just want to focus as the story rolls along . I'm not a huge fan of Uk hip-hop but this time it seemed to fit in and add to the flavour of the film . The only drawback was that it was a little to over hyped and once or twice it did feel a bit unrealistic in some places but it stood on track and the humour was pretty funny in places as well especially with the white hoody guy. In general Kidulthood is a deep , dark , depressing look on the darker side of London's youth and by looking at it one will walk away probably wanting to take a look back at his life and see where is his or her future heading for . Kidulthood is highly recommended film by not only my-self but several other movie lovers and I shall very likely purchase this when it hits the DVD'S. KIDULTHOOD SCORES : 8 OUT 10 FOR NOW THIS IS THE SHADOWMAN WISHING YOU ALL GOOD LUCK AND GOOD NIGHT .

So. Kidulthood. There has been a lot of talk about this film and how it's a little over the top that it happens in one day. That may be so, but the issues faced in the film are what that demographic goes through and i think by audience reaction so far the film makers choice to show this was correct. I also believe people are missing the point. Film like books doesn't have to answer question. I thought The film itself is beautifully shot. Tufano has used everything at his disposal to make the low budget work, and with clever editing and music any weak directing is quickly covered. the acting is amazing with the Young Ameen (Trife)an Madrell (Alisa)using their raw talent to put in Stella performances. One wonders if they can get any better than this. If they can i believe the future of British TV/Film is in good hands. Noel Clarke's performance as (Sam, the Bully) was downright amazing. Seeing him totally convince me that he was not Wyman or Mickey, (the characters he plays in two well known shows)Was a treat. His menace and the intimidation factor he bought to Sam showed that many films that have used a British rapper in the parts may have missed a trick. (Although i have heard that in real life he is more like Sam than the those other characters mentioned. Apart from thee abusive bullying part of course.) Jamie winstone is also a great as (Becky) and the laughs come from Deacon (Jay) Clarke's script although great, suffers at times with the over use of bad language and violent scenes which seem a little too much. the general chatter of the young people is real enough though snatched straight from the streets of Ladbroke grove itself. You believe the conversations the kids have and kind of like their youthful ignorance. The lack of police is a bit unreal and you would think parents would be around a little more but the film makers say that this film is supposed to be from the kids point of view and not many kids get up to bad stuff with mum around. Overall i would say that although not perfect, i would say that this is the best homegrown film in at least ten years. You will love or hate this movie (I personally loved it) but you should definitely see it. British film, in all it's low budget grittyness is back. You get me! (That's what the kids say right?)
