This is the most sickening and offensive film I have ever seen, I recommend you don’t watch it, I probably just sound like a voice over man on a movie trailer having a nervous breakdown but I can see that people might get brainwashed by this film and copy the stupid and horrifying antics that the characters pull in this. I know it’s only acting and it’s a film but some scenes were just horrible and disgusting, I like Noel Clarke, he is a good actor but seeing another side of him in this is just shocking, and this film is a 15? Did someone accidentally print out the wrong age number or something because this doesn’t look like a 15 rated film to me. The girl characters are pathetic, they are potentially wishing their lives away by being part of this group full of low lives. Sam who is the antagonist or protagonist or more of a pro antagonist because he’s doing a good job being a professional moron is someone who you should not be friends with. As for more of the other characters who are mean, they act just as bad as Sam. I can see how where the film is set, it could put off tourists wanting to go there after watching it judging by how it’s portrayed in this film. It just brings out negativity into the place, rather than pointing out that there are a few nasty people about it would just carry on deeper into that mood. What is the story really? The story of how people can be superior and not to be messed with? Ha ha ha oh I’m laughing so hard NOT! The story just makes you stuck into this little picnic with drugs, knives and blood and you just don’t need to see it. It could make viewers look like they’re witnessing crimes in real life and they’re too scared to call emergency services just like in real life. I honestly didn’t like this film so much that I don’t have the guts and patience to watch it again so I can fully remember what I saw, I am reviewing this after seeing it only a few years ago, I haven’t seen it just before stating my opinions on it.
