A bit of a mess

Interesting for the archive footage. The footage lifted from HWY is not given any context and makes no sense at all - not being aware of the film I thought the footage was some random fictional bits added as padding or for effect.

The chronology seems to get a bit mixed up with external events referenced out of sequence and/or out of context. 

A boring drive down the M6 at night

A boring half story about a boring man.  There was nothing interesting about the character, why make a film about him? An attempt to make a technically clever film - only one person in shot and only one location with the story told through the medium of phone calls - but frankly what was the point. Might have made an ok half hour radio play, but has no merit as a film.

Gets a second star because I briefly worked as a concrete engineer and so knew some of the technical stuff he was talking about and met someone a bit like him.

No surprise there was a riot

Slightly reminiscent of the (20 years later) Victoria. The B&W presentation feels right, the camerawork is quite fluid matching the edgy feel of the action. Perhaps it fails to delve into the pressures that the protagonists are under, and there 'hate' seems to be ust between the pigs and the kidz - but why?
