I love when he sobs in the car very realistic in my opinion
very great dramatic & entertaining movie... from the nice fun-clique to a brainwashing oraganisation & yeah, don't ever steal or touch HIS pudding..!
Pequeña mafia de niños que buscan identidad y se forman como skinheads...pasan todo el día solos, vagando entonces la pandillita es como la familia buena onda que todo lo alienta y nada corrige (suena bkn!), pero el paraicillo sòlo dura hasta que llegan los reventados de verdad (salen de la cárcel) y van a controlar al grupo con verdadera rigidez de nazi (racismo a cagar y violencia gratuita).

Its a very powerful story that you can't close your mind to, its interesting to be able to find this kind of film was made. Its fearless of showing the real side of these characters without being jugdeful, glamourize. Well made and acted, its very touching, its like it grabs you from the balls and forces you to watch something the can be typically ugly.
Nice film. I must say, though, that the ending felt a bit sudden, abrupt, simplistic (maybe), and sentimental. Loved the naturalistic 16mm photography. Some amazing performances. This is acting.
This is one of those movies I wish I could choose for whom to see it. But that isn't possible, obviously. So I'll just enjoy it and pretend it was made in the nineties and released straight to VHS.
rui tenreiro: too easy to say that "less brains than hair." this film don't show us the real skinhead scene, a lot of skin doesn't care about racism or politic, it's a culture with rules, music (ska reggae skinhead, oi, punkrock) you can talk with some of them and you can find some very interesting people.... american history x is not a film which concern skinhead scene... working class rules!!!oi
the costumes were nice, and skin heads are what they are: less brains than hair.
seemed a little deja-vu after watching American History X and Made in Britain. but it had his little moments I liked.
