Evan K Money, family, status, the school you went to is not what gives a man class. The way someone treats themselves & those around them, their character, their virtue, their state of consciousness is what true class is. It's a damning social commentary on the pitfalls of privelege, the entrenched inequality in British society & the inevitable self destruction this leads to on an individual & societal level. It's a particular survival strategy based on extraction, exclusion & entitlement. It's not one based on the true fundamentals of existence which exists in unity & interconnection which is why it requires such illusions of grandeur & institutions of entrenched power. Decent movie, interesting topic but the characters & plot are a bit one dimensional. True class is a state of consciousness.

Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/10/23 Full Review Audience Member What starts out as an interesting examination of privilege and class ends up to be a totally implausible and overlong exercise which belies its original existence as a play Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member What a total pile of crack full of overprivalaged toff twats, I despise everything these upturned noses stand for Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The film is well-paced and features fine performances. The talented young cast has chemistry and make the most of the material. Where it goes wrong, IMO, is in making a major change from the source material (the stage play "Posh."). The director decided to give Miles a love interest, and make her and their relationship, if not exactly central, intrinsic to the plot. It was an unneeded and unwelcome, for me, change that was intended to add an extra edge but ended up blunting the existing ones instead. This character drained the show of its originality and made it vaguely reminiscent of an 80s Teen Rom-Com, but without the nice ending. Had they left the plot as it was, the climactic scene in which everything goes haywire would have made way more sense. I happen to like Holliday Grainger, who plays the girlfriend in question. There is nothing wrong with her performance. But the character still throws it all off balance. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member It could have gotten a star more if the ending had been different, it just didn't resonate with me. Also I think there could've been some kind of bigger character growth. But it was really entertaining and you really felt alive as the boys did.
