now that i have seen this movie twice now I know for sure its one of the few movies made these days, that you truly feel a part of. it takes you to places you haven't been before, to people you haven't met before you become one of them, you are them. in addition to this, the music is so beautiful that you will try to find the soundtrack as soon as you wipe off the tears from your face and move on...

Here is another example of how too often the real gems go by unnoticed...this film rocks! I was lucky enough to catch it on British Airways coming back from the UK and even in its edited form was quite moved. It's one of those films that holds you throughout, you really get dragged into the fast-paced, tense, sensual and moving dynamics of this young group of friends. But one of the real highlights is the sound track! Is this available in the UK? If not are bootlegs available?? (can someone please let me know?) The sound of the group was just amazing. One of my favorites from 1999. Definitely check it out if you can.

Well, I was shocked when I saw this film. I do not ususaly read or follow critics views. Never was one for following other people's opionions especially from those who have never actually written or produced a film in thier lives. This time however I read Empire's review and I agree with the critic, totaly gripping. It's a slice of life that if you have close friends you will totaly get this film. Wonderful cast wonderful music wonderful film. Shame so little publicity. Although I understand that British airways were showing it on all international flights, two of my friends saw it and we of which I grew up with and agreed that it was a joy to watch.
To say it has no plot, Jasby!!? Shows just how much you understand film. I also noted that you have commented on no other films on the IMBD network, I wonder why that is!?Hey anyway, if it gets out here in the states on video. Go see it.
It's all in the balance -B

Saw it in Cannes. It's the first film that has a sense that it knows what it is talking about. The characters are moving and very original, played by some the best British talent to grace our screens. Wonderful sound track. My favourites were Charlie, Bean, Rix, Elroy and Ricky. The whole structure feels different. There is no one real protaganist. A real sense of style, without being pretentious and looking somewhat like an advert. You could not ask for much more out of a film than this provides...Well done...
