When you see a film boasting it's directed by Cal McCau who brought us the astonishing 'Adolescence' and 'Boiling Point' you know this is priority viewing so off I trotted to my nearest Vue on a Wednesday morning at 10am, and I wasn't disappointed.
Taylor (David Jonsson) is looking at early parole due to the over crowding problem in UK prisons, he just needs to keep his nose clean, but a can of worms is opened when he gets a new cellmate, the unhinged gangster drug dealer Dee (Tom Blyth) and slowly things spiral out of control. With a certificate 18 (which is quite rare now) this is a brutal, nasty cold world we are viewing, drugs rule the wing, and who controls the supply, rules the wing. Violent, superb acting, none of your usual prison cliches, this is top notch British cinema and a must see.4.5/5
