Synopsis

The story of a young group of siblings pretty much abandoned by their parents, surviving by their wits - and humor - on a rough Manchester council estate. Whilst they won't admit it, they need help and find it in Steve, a young middle class lad who falls for Fiona, the oldest sibling, and increasingly finds himself drawn to this unconventional and unique family. Anarchic family life seen through the eyes of an exceptionally bright fifteen year old, who struggles to come of age in the context of his belligerent father, closeted brother, psychotic sister and internet porn star neighbors.

Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Andre (ustoopia) "Tickets this way for the Chatsworth Express Come and watch pikey's making a mess Of the lives they were given by him upstairs And kids they're convinced aren't actually theirsWhat sound on earth could ever replace Kids needing money and wives in your face Cos this, people reckon, and me included, Is why pubs and drugs were kindly inventedTo calm us all down, stop us going mental These are Chatsworth Estate's basic essentials We are worth every penny, we're grinding your axes You sit on our head, but you pay the taxesImagine a Britain without Chatsworth buccaneers We'll come on your face for the price of a beer Make poverty history, cheaper drugs now Make poverty history, cheaper drugs now!"
Necrom8 Since practically everyone gave this series a good review I though I would try to watch It. I didn't watch much, I watched some parts of It and I though It was really doll and boring.The worst thing is that I can't even complain much about It because there is not much to complain about.It's like watching one long conversation between 2 or more people where they mostly bitch and swear. The comedy isn't very developed and the acting is below average. You constantly hear pointless lines that were intended to be funny but which are not. What I really hate about this movie is the beginnings where they say staff like ..There are a few people in this series, that guy who committed suicide, that guy who is retarded and that guy who was ones arrested''. Or even worse when they say ..they say people should educate the young generation but that's a lot of bullshit cause they will still be robbers and rapists in the future''.It's really annoying.really nice lesson for the kids guys. Even through there are definitely worse things on TV It still doesn't makes It good.
Framescourer It's rather difficult to give an account of all 5 seasons of this enjoyable series. 1 & 2 are quite excellent, fun, energetic and edgy TV drama with super characters and pregnant with precarious romance. 3 - 5 are more of the same but they don't seem to have the same runaway inventiveness and sparkle as the first two.I have to admit this is down to the quite remarkable chemistry between the principal inamoratas played by Rebecca Ryan and (long since A-list promotee) James McAvoy. It is no surprise to learn that the two actors got married. Their liaison is utterly magnetic but would have less of a swing without the wonderful supporting cast - I've always been a huge fan of the gobby Maxine Peake and the pioneer author of the series Paul Abbott can have had no better gravitational centre to his creation than David Threlfall's dysfunctional dad Frank. Highly recommended. To begin with. 7/10
martyfolan Without a shadow of a doubt , Shameless is the best drama/comedy ever written . The writing is absolutely top-notch and the acting is mind-blowing . Every character is brilliantly developed and all of their flaws are on show . This only makes you love them more . The alcoholic , the agoraphobic , the tourettes sufferer , the gay lad , the interfering mother(s) , and all the other crazy characters make this show unmissable . If you haven't seen it , do yourself a favour and go and get the first series and fall in love with the gang from Chatsworth estate . "Each and every one of them ...know how to throw a paaaaarty! Scatter! "
