Too many moments come off as clichéd or contrived. Oct 31, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
Too many moments come off as clichéd or contrived.

It's about a young white rapper who has issues with his mother, and naturally it may owe something to Curtis Hanson's 8 Mile from 2003, starring Eminem, but I enjoyed this more. Oct 18, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It's energetic and eager to please, and it certainly doesn't insult its viewers' literacy: the rap battles are cleverly written. Oct 22, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Vs. may set its stall as the British 8 Mile, with its hard-done-by protagonist transmuting his rage into lyrics, but it goes its own way and is refreshingly progressive when it comes to gender and sexuality. Oct 21, 2018 | Full Review…

Lilly deftly handles a cliched story - there are parallels with everything from Eminem in 8 Mile to boxing drama Creed - giving it a distinctive, persuasive edginess. Oct 21, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's pungently acted by a cast of unknowns, and the wars of words are thrilling and often eye-wateringly offensive. Oct 19, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

In the latter stages, the film becomes increasingly sentimental, and even risks turning into a full blown tearjerker, but it never feels trite or manipulative. Oct 18, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

VS gains strength by not trotting out easy Hollywood solutions to complex problems. Nor does it lay on the seaside location too thick. Oct 17, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Embraces the specificity of an English working-class seaside milieu, stacks the drama with ebullient UK rap and grime talent, and puts Swindells's vital performance stage centre to produce a compelling drama that transcends its generic roots... Oct 15, 2018 | Full Review…
