British filmmaker Shane Meadows looks back at his own youth in this semi-autobiographical comedy drama that examines skinhead culture in the U.K. It's the summer of 1983, and Shaun (Thomas Turgoose) is a 12-year-old boy edging into adolescence without a father, his dad having lost his life the year before in the Falkland Islands War. A gang of skinheads -- tough guys in their teens and early twenties who shave their heads, wear Ben Sherman polo shirts, and Dr. Martens boots, and listen to ska music -- walk the streets in Shaun's neighborhood, and one day they start picking on him. Shaun, however, shows he can give as good as he gets, and gang leader Woody (Joe Gilgun) takes a liking to the boy. Woody takes Shaun under his wing, and he starts hanging out with the skins, getting advice on dressing right from Woody's girlfriend, Lol (Vicky McClure), and learning about Jamaican music from West Indian skinhead Milky (Andrew Shim). However, the gang begins to change when Combo (Stephen Graham) is released from prison and returns to the neighborhood; like many skinheads, Combo has been recruited by the National Front, an openly racist right-wing political party, and soon the gang begins to fracture, with Combo taking one faction toward violence and petty crime against blacks, Indians, and Pakistanis, while Woody and his friends follow a more benign path. This Is England received its North American premiere at the 2006 Toronto Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

New Review For Movie This Is England
How sad and predictable is the fate of those who counsel violence as a means to an end. And yet how poignant it all seems when viewed through Shane Meadows' thoughtful lens.Peter Howell-Toronto Star
You wouldn't think a film about a group of British skinheads during the early 1980s could be a sweet, nostalgic coming-of-age period piece, but that's the surprise of the authentic, fresh and utterly relevant This Is England.
Jennie Punter-Globe and Mail
Its tough but moving neo-realist approach make it one of the better British films of recent times.
Richard James Havis-Hollywood Reporter
It may be the best work to date from the talented 34-year-old writer-director of Twenty Four Seven (1997).
John Hartl-Seattle Times
A drama that's so potent and persuasive yet also natural and intimate that it almost has the heft of a documentary.
Bruce Westbrook-Houston Chronicle
A movie about the allure of groupthink and how the warm comfort of being surrounded by peers wilts all sense of balance.
Tom Long-Detroit News
It is the war within him--and by extension, within the minds of many embittered, working class young men left behind in Thatcher's England--that Meadows's film most strikingly portrays.
Leo Goldsmith-Reverse Shot
Steeped in the raw mix of ska and punk sound as expression of the youth alienation and misguided rage of those tumultuous times, an alarming voice of the surging army of jobless youth back then dubbed 'no hopers.'
Prairie Miller-NewsBlaze
Stephen Graham delivers a bravura performance as the brooding, mesmerizing Combo, clearly channeling Russell Crowe in Romper Stomper.
Marlow Stern-Manhattan Movie Magazine
Riveting.
Jason Ferguson-Orlando Weekly
Meadows obviously knows the working class neighborhoods that he depicts. There's a grit and honesty to his film as he chronicles the mundane details of these kids' lives.
Beth Accomando-KPBS.org
An intelligent, spare, mean-streets sort of story, This Is England features superb performances...
Liz Braun-Jam! Movies
This Is England grabs you by the scruff of the neck and yanks you into the Thatcher 1980s with brute force.
Michele Kenner-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
A post-punk gem of a drama that seems bent on being both funny and deadly serious.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews
This is not the England that makes you want to hop on over for a visit, but the movie is worthy of a quick look.
Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone-TheMovieChicks.com
[Meadows] captures the palpable anger of impoverished youth, without money or jobs or hope, seeking to blame somebody else for their troubles.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune
[Shane] Meadows' fictionalized version of these events is at least as vivid -- and at times as hard to watch -- as some of Ken Loach's more stark dramas.
Jeff Vice-Deseret News, Salt Lake City
This Is England is a movie like a punch to the solar plexus.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy
Somewhere between the pop jouissance of Guy Ritchie and the social realism of Ken Loach, this ballsy drama freeze-frames bleak Thatcherite Yorkshire and exposes its racist underbelly.
Marrit Ingman-Austin Chronicle
A successfully executed cautionary tale condemning war and racism in the context of growing up in cloudy Northern England
Ron Wilkinson-Monsters and Critics
He [Director Shane Meadows] He has a gift for getting under the skin of his working-class characters, who are invariably from the British Midlands and are invariably struggling to hold onto honor and innocence in a violent, dangerous world.
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press
