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.
score 8/10
