The trailer looked promising, so well done to the marketing chaps there. However, such are the embarrassing levels of cheesiness throughout it really starts to grind on you. I too was one of those who saw this at a pre release screening, I was relatively excited for it. The acting is pretty hammy. I thought i recognised the main protagonists mate, and it was Tommen Baratheon of Game off Thrones fame- he must be one of the worst actors out there. Along too the main star had zero charisma. I found the scene when the whole market place erupted into spontaneous singing and dancing to be one most cringe worthy pieces of cinema I've seen since watching John Travolta ham it up in Gotti.

The ending is odd too, I was thinking throughout who was the main protagonist? And who did he grow up to be in later life, and he was just some bloke! It's like my idol growing up was, and still is, Harrison Ford- come and make a vanity project about me and how I used to dress up like Indiana Jones and quote him all the time! Given what's happening in the uk at the moment I feel as if people will warm to it more because of the issues of race, and the consequences of turning a blind eye to it. But that was used as a tool to tug on people's emotions, more than trying to address any issues with the national front in the 80s.

score 4/10
