| GuardianPeter BradshawNo amount of yoofsploitation grit could obscure the moral guidance in this story, making it a kids' film in spirit, if not certificate. |
| Time OutGuy LodgeDonnelly, better known for his work in the music industry, ensures there's enough juddering dubstep on the soundtrack to drown out his pedestrian dialogue. |
| Total FilmPaul M. BradshawFavouring its relentless dubstep soundtrack over its characters, the film feels like more like background filler. |
| Empire MagazineJoel CunninghamA blackmail thriller that's more non-league than Premiership. |
| Daily Mirror (UK)Mark AdamsA bit too heavyhanded as hoodies hit the football pitches. |
| Little White LiesAshley ClarkCynical fodder aimed squarely at perceived yoof demographic. Poor. |
| Observer (UK)Philip FrenchNothing rings true, not even the tones on the characters' mobile phones. |
| Sky CinemaTim EvansDebut director Danny Donnelly's thriller settles snugly alongside similar geezerish fare such as Kidulthood. Which is to say it isn't very good. |
| The Sun (UK)Alex ZaneAdam has talent, but he'll need superior material to maintain his rise. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerPoorly directed and often excruciating to watch, this is a painfully pedestrian British drama with a simplistic, finger-wagging script and an awkward central performance from BAFTA Rising Star Adam Deacon. |
