Review of Rocks

Rocks (2019)
8/10
Another gritty movie set on a British council estate
13 May 2021
OK, I'll say it: there are a LOT of these movies about downtrodden Brits in crummy estates.

Probably, to be fair, because there are a lot of downtrodden Brits in crummy estates. Not enough of them, however, to outweigh the not-so-downtrodden working-class bigots who vote for old Etonians because they don't like being told what to do by the out-of-touch elites.

That said, I really liked this movie. The understated ending is a sublime example of how no conclusion can be a perfect conclusion.

And at least this one isn't set in Tilbury.
