This isn't child's play. It's just another day in the inner city, where teenage growing pains can often lead to suicide, pregnancy and hot-blooded murder. So when classes are suspended after a bullied schoolgirl hangs herself rather than face another day of torment, a posse of unremorseful 15-year-olds take to the streets, where sex and drugs are a way of life and violence lurks behind every corner.

Well-chosen actors, a soundtrack set to the rhythm of GB hip-hop (music very close to my heart) that perfectly illustrates the gritty and "dirty" urban atmosphere, and pretty decent visuals – these three things pull Kidulthood out of the average for teen dramas. If it weren't for the psychological austerity and simplicity, I'd even consider 5 stars. Instead of more fleshed out characters, Kidulthood evokes disgust, pity, helplessness, and sympathy right from the start as it bombards the viewer with harsh scenes of bullying. For my part, perhaps the most absurd fact (I had similar feelings about Fish Tank) is that despite all the prejudice, hatred and depressing overtones, the whole setting is bizarrely appealing (be it because of the "freedom", living with minimal parental interference, and having to deal with all the shit yourself). Adulthood is even a hair better. :)
