"This is england" is a periodic drama about the lower class in of the 80s, at the peak of the Falklands War nationalist groups get stronger but also becomes more and more dangerous when nationalist groups become racist and extremer, what brings a little boy named Sean who lost his dad in the war to a massive and powerful journey about nationalism that shows him the ugly side of the patriotism - the national purity. In this film you get a critical perspective about the British society of those years. The director did an amazing job by taking you inside england of those years and letting you feel the atmosphere. The development of the young people gang from a funny and easy gang to a dangerous group leaded by a racism maniac. Along the changing of the gang something else has changed too - the boy. the main actor, Thomas Turgoose made a great performance (and by the way his first) as Sean, the little boy but most of the others were not more than nice. In summary this movie is much more than just a movie, it is story, story of a period. For another reviews: http://imdb.com/user/ur44998795/comments
