4 of us went to see this film and we all loved it. Casting was spot on, soundtrack brilliant, loyal to the book and great scenes. Disagree with all the people on here saying it needs subtitles and had no plot - so all films end with all loose ends resolved? Don't think so. Use your imagination - it's clear he's survived, with his family, that's the point.

Idris came through. Yardie painted a nice picture of the struggles of Jamaica and being Jamaican in 80s London was like. I enjoyed it and would recommend.

A bit of a mess of a film, really. Doesn't really follow the plot of the book and is of limited appeal to anyone not well versed in the patois used in the film. I spent most of it wondering what the hell was going on. For enthusiasts only.
