Goofs
Most of the home street scenes were filmed in Seacombe, Wallasey, but the cutting of the film makes it a rather impressive walk out the a door after the bed-side scene: from Seacombe back-street, north along Birkenhead's Corporation Road, then back across the docks into Seacombe via the Four Bridges, ending up on the Liverpool side in the next cut.

If I can get away with that I can get away with anything

A real taste of 70s Britain here, social injustice, poverty, and social climbing all brought together with the Irish Liverpool way, Get Carter would be a reference but in a way this brilliant movie is different, yes it is a revenge Northern movie but it has so much more to offer, if you grew up in an Irish household in England then you would really relate to some of this movie.Try it out you won't be disappointed I give this 9/10
