| Preparing to do battle...up the pub! |
Scary lot, the people in this film. There must be joy in looking fearsome and being violent, otherwise why do it? I couldn't even enjoy the lighter moments wondering when they would suddenly explode into a physical melee. The character Jake is painted as black and white as possible, no grey shades here. His wife weak and stupid as possible easily forgetting the beatings. The children suffering the consequences of parents driven by alcohol and poor education.
The film is well made but not very uplifting.
