Strangely unengaging.
I absolutely adore Stephen Graham who chooses tough, hard hitting drama rather than any routine roles offered to him.
So it's personally disappointing to only give this a 7/10 because I think it could have been so much better.
The real life situations are hard enough to bear, but when dramatised then I just felt that they should have had more impact.
Acting was great, direction was a bit iffy and the editing was bearable.
But here was something missing which I can't quite put my finger on.
Maybe there was more of a story here regarding the conversion of Graham's character, or a deeper analysis of the different right wing factions and how they differed from each other and what drove them apart.
I could be alone in this, but I was disappointed.
