 This film called This is England.  It’s about a boy called Shaun who was 12 years old and had no friends. This film takes place in Great Britain, nineteen eighty-three (1983).  It was when Margret Thatcher was Prime minister. The war Falklands war took place in nineteen eighty-three. Shaun’s father was a soldier who died during the Falklands war. Shaun’s mother became a window after the father’s death. In school Shaun was bullied and was very sensitive when it came to his father. Sometimes he got so mad that he got into fights.

  One day when he was on his way home from school he met a skinhead gang that he began to associate with. The skinhead gang was much older than him but they were really nice to him and protected him when he needed it. The leader in the gang was a nice but weak guy called Woody. Shaun was with Woody and the others all the time. It was a girl in the gang that Shaun fell in love with, she was called Smell but her real name was Michelle. After a time an old friend of Woody came out from prison. He was called Combo. Combo was a charismatic, frustrated, psychotic National Front activist who split the gang in 2 parts, which included Shaun in Combos gang. Their anger at perceived injustice and took its expression in racist graffiti paintings, robbery and harassment of the area’s poor as called " Pakis ".

This movie came out two thousand six (2006) but is set in nineteen eighty-three (1983). The movie was written and directed by Shane Meadows. I think that This is England is a good movie to teach children something about how it was when Margret Thatcher was prime minister and how people lived and what they looked like in nineteen eighty-three (1983). It was a bit annoying with their dialect. It was very different from what I’m used to. I didn’t like the movie because it was not interesting and it was boring, but at the same time it was little bit funny and sad. From 1-5 in ratings I will give the movie two and a half (2,5).
