Seen it.

Wasn't a huge fan. Semi-confrontational. Semi-gibberish (think brad pitt in snatch but in a bad way). Moral messages abit tacky (not as bad as PE videos though).

Included some silly lines, one that sticks is: "we might call you trav, but your names trevor". Which is meant to convey all kinds of things but just sounds silly.

LOL to this!!

this is a very british movie and contains a lot of things that you probably don't fully understand unless you go to school here in England. One major thing is the accent which you clearly haven't got down. Example:

you think he said the above when actually he said "we might call you trife, but your name's trevor". Major difference! Trife means someone who does whatever it takes to survive. It has an actual meaning unlike Trav. This is just one example of something you won't have understood leading me to believe that there was more.

Not trying to be a d*** about it, I just want you to understand that the movie is very cultural and probably only has a captive audience. :)
