Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Prismark10 Noel Clarke writes and stars in Kidulthood. After the suicide of a young schoolgirl bullied at school and harassed by Sam (Clarke.) The students are given time off school the next day to mourn.We follow the youths as they criss cross each other throughout the day. There is casual bullying, drug taking, stealing and sex.Sam is riled when a group of lads break into his house and goes out looking for revenge. However one of the lad's has an uncle who is a vicious gangster, a plot strand that will develop later in the trilogy.Kidulthood is a low budget gritty look at inner city London but it is also a look at life of young people that is becoming cliched as red London buses and city types wearing bowler hats.Clarke's writing is raw but it does have an energy to it. However some of the characters look too old to be at school and too many of them are just nasty all the time, so you really do not care about them.
xsophietaylorx Kidulthood is a film that took me by a surprise considering it is a British film I didn't have much hope even though I am British I find that I just don't seem to enjoy British films as much as American it could be the way I man raised of it could just be that British films are bad I don't know but anyway Kidulthood really shocked me the film is very gripping and bring you a truthful insight on the life of London teenagers in more rough areas. The ending is also a tear jerker and really affective in getting the harsh realitys of that lifestyle across. All the cast plays there roles very well and believable and they all have important parts in the film. This film is very popular we're I live because it unfortunately almost relates to the area I live in. All though the film is abit depressing it's truthful and will keep you entertained to find out more & more.
jamiewalden25 This is another underrated film, the acting is excellent even if it doesn't star massive Hollywood actors/actresses, the film is depressing yet compelling, and the bleak setting and nature of the film seems scarily real.It takes place in London, and spans over a long day, in the lives of three adolescent boys, and drama and troubles they get into, and delivers one shock of an ending.The violence is brutal but real, the script is profane, but again realistic and the underage sex, drugs and violence shows us a world we live with, and could happen any day of the week
FilmBrit I never got into Kiduthood, the way the movie betrays how everyone as 'heroes' of some sort and people to look up too with the limelight, like we already know who the good and bad guys from the beginning and how we are challenged that the good character are the way of life.The protagonists aren't as great either and are not really likable. There more of the actors who are the good guys but not the character themselves.The endless amount and the effort of trouble most of the character while wearing their urban street gear, tools of violence and negative influences surrounding them does make it challenge to watch and there are the 'Sorry, I got caught moments so I'll change' and the 'You got lucky and it will never happen again' which comes across as unrealistic! It does tie into together and for a movie anyways however it still as average and sometimes I ask how the character are even living their lives.The story and the massive amount of drama makes it worth the watch and the movie makes the characters work together to put an end of what's going on in the movie. A bit over dramatic however it works and the ending is satisfying.
