Best movie ever!

A Disappointing Continuation

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Missed the first few minutes of this debut film as I was channel surfing the other night. Don't usually like missing the beginnings of a film but for once I stayed put. I wasn't disappointed, on the contrary, it made my night.Performances given by the cast on a whole is praiseworthy, notables are the maturing Will Poulter, good to see, as my recollection of him was as a talented rapscallion in sketches from School of Comedy. Liz White as Roxy, giving a golden heart to a considered flawed character. Charlie Creed-Miles, with the words of Danny King and the director himself, Dexter Fletcher, puts every father in a position, a crossroads. A capturing performance from Charlie that is top notch, even towards the end of the film I was calibrating him towards a young Day-Lewis.Enjoy this film, it's skylines, The Carpenters Arms Estate and the added bonus of seeing a few familiar faces adding to the punch this film packs. Storytelling, Brit style. Love it. Beautiful end credit.Pass that on to Babyface ;-)

(58%) To make yet another low budgeted cockney based crime drama is a bit like making yet another low budget zombie horror, it's something that has been done and done and done. So to stand out from the pack it really needs to be a sizeable step up from the more average entries. And I'm glad to report that this is. The first time feature film director Dexter Fletcher really has created something that shows the near impossible situation ex-cons face, and not in the more lazily way of gang intimidation to get back into a life of crime, but home and family life too. It also helps that the writing feels like something that was actually worked on rather than scribbled down on a bit of paper during shooting. While the performances are all pretty good, even if a couple of the side characters are a little underwritten. Overall a really quite solid crime drama with more than a few nice touches of comedy, a cool soundtrack, and more than a bit of heart, all set in the backdrop of a harsh London neighbourhood that's constantly changing.

Wild Bill is directed by Dexter Fletcher who also co-writes the screenplay with Danny King. It stars Charlie Creed-Miles, Will Poulter, Liz White, Sammy Williams, Charlotte Spencer, Leo Gregory, Neil Maskell and Iwan Rheon. Music is by Christian Henson and cinematography by George Richmond.Wild Bill Hayward (Creed-Miles) is just out of prison after serving eight years. Heading home he finds his two sons Dean (Poulter) and Jimmy (Williams) fending for themselves after their mother abandoned them. Bill hadn't planned on hanging around, but if he doesn't then the boys will be taken into care. More pressing is that the local drug runners have got young Jimmy working for them, Bill might just have to take his parental responsibilities to another level and justify his Wild reputation.Splendid piece of British grit and wit, Wild Bill follows in the traditions of films directed by British actors, who for their debut directing assignment impressed with the ability to grab the attention and no loosen the grip. Fletcher has done a bang up job here, managing to turn what could have been a standard dysfunctional family melodrama into something more meaningful, engaging and suspenseful.Story is set to the backdrop of working class London, where the building of the Olympic stadium serves as a beacon of hope in the distance, while our principal characters struggle through a world of grimy flats, empty pubs, dirty cafés and drug infested council estates.The narrative operates on two fronts, Bill (Miles superb) is trying to keep on the straight and narrow, as he candidly observes, if his dog craps on the pavement he will get 18 months back in prison! But as he tries to build a relationship with his two sons, especially the older and more colder Dean, circumstances are drawing him back into the violent world he desperately wants to leave behind. It's this angle that gives the film its suspense, as viewers we are wondering if Bill can achieve his goals, will he get a break, will the family become one unit?Elsewhere the film operates as a coming of age story, where Dean has had to grow up real fast to look after his younger brother, even taking on employment at the age of 15 to provide for Jimmy and himself. Then there is matters of the heart, as he is strongly attracted to local girl Steph (Spencer), this aspect is very well handled by Fletcher, who gets the excellent Poulter to deftly portray those early nerves when Cupid starts to draw back its bow, the tentative fumblings of young love easily identifiable to us all.Pic is full of familiar British faces, most of them just stopping by in cameos to lend friendly support to Fletcher's project. They all offer a reassuring presence to proceedings, adding further weight to what is damn fine debut picture. Sometimes violent, often heart warming and tender, and very laugh out loud funny, Wild Bill is a winner. 9/10

1.I must admit that this British movie make my long and black night smooth and gender, because you can see the process of love, gender and growing up in this movie, especially the characters in this movie are carving so lovely, deeply,realistically and vividly. Bill was portrayed so well, within restraining his behavior and following the rules as a rightful person, even though there is a monster in his mind.2. This movie makes me feel smooth and comfortable, especially when you feel the fathers' deep and warm heart to their son. It is really good and happy to see a separating family reunion together after the process from distrust to trust, the angry face to sending coffee slinking to his father, the decision of leaving to a new city to staying with their children. These beautiful story and scene really make me resonate with this special British movie. 3. The good movie doesn't need strong or immense story structure, but it is really important to find the right position of the movie and build a great story based on this position. For example, if the director focuses on the tender feeling side of the story, the fighting scene and the angry and revenge showing after teasing for a long time could be regarded as bedding to the tender side , within dealing as beyond endurance and fearing to the reality and losing their children. 4. Actually this is a tight and realistic movie, especially when Bill would rather admit his feeble to the leader of the gangster in front of his children and realistic happy ending is supported by this movie, because Bill was taken by the police,within a big smile when he saw his children and family waiting for him. The happy mood at that moment was shown by comparison by Bill talked the story to his children that he was bullied in the prison.
