Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Mark Thomas REVIEW - THE RIOT CLUB I have watched many films in my life and many wash over me with no meaning except for a few like I Daniel Blake.This film is one of those very rare films that is truly disturbing. The difference between those who have and those who have not, the difference between those born into money and those who earn it. Horrible, disturbing but essential watching reinforcing the image of we look after our own. Are the characters in this film true? Do people actually act this way? I will never know and honestly never want to be in the position to find out. Rating 10 out of 10

Paul Creeden It's funny how this same story, if portrayed about blue-collar young men in the USA, would just seem trashy. Here, with Oxford and Brit accents, it becomes some kind of morality play for our times. It is the old story of privilege and class collision. There is no new insight. Perhaps the vicarious drunkenness and violence are meant to draw in a teen audience. The characters are anachronistic at best. The only redeeming feature is its attempt to poke at the class issue with some sensibility, despite the overboard histrionics in the pub scene. Unfortunately, it is still who you know, not what you know. That much rings all too true.

Lola A This movie gives you a lot to think about. Lessons: A good lesson about how we shouldn't paint everyone with the same brush. All those 10 members if looked superficially are all the same: good education, got into oxford, rich, coming from prestigious families. Alistair Ryle however was very different from Miles. Completely different. While Alistair and the some of the others did all hold this anger towards the poor and how not all the world is not like them, Miles never shared these views. He even had a girlfriend who came from the middle class. While 'posh' is not always bad, this movie shows that 9 times out of 10 it is. A good lesson also about how prestige should not be the only criteria when evaluating if to join something or not. You should not join something without knowing if you'll like it just because it is prestigious. But then again I guess how can you find out how something is without being in it. One should surround him or her self with people that you can count on, friends, nice people, people that have considerations for others, for their feeling. Not with people like those unscrupulous members of the club, no matter how prestigious that club might be. Not with people who would scapegoat you without a second thought to save themselves. It shows how disgusting people that think that money can buy everything can be. And the saddest part is that people like Alistair just like in this movie sometimes do end behind important desks no matter what. Do they care about other people's feelings? This all you need to know about one person to get a hint with what you are dealing. Another important thing-was Lauren rushing and judging Miles too quickly about what happened? Was she right to not even give him the chance to explain? Miles now was a reminder of what happened. Guilty or not guilty, how much of a role does it play when you can only forget what happened when you distance yourself away from everything reminding you about it. Sometimes in life you pay even when your not guilty. Plausibility: I really loved the fact that at the end the actual guilty one was taken by the police even he probably won't get the punishment he deserved. How I did not find plausible however, is that in order to be part of this club you have to be one of the brightest. I just think that if you are one of the brightest you would not behave like those in the club.

Leftbanker If you want to see where America is heading this film will help you see the way. The grotesque British class system was something that always horrified me as a child and I was glad to have grown up in a much more egalitarian America, at least where I lived in the middle of the country. I'd say that we aren't too far from another civil war to check the rampant gutting of our middle class by the richest few. If these "elites" are allowed to govern our world unchallenged then god help us.I had a hard time watching this as I found all of the boys to be despicable and loathsome. After the incident with the innkeeper the one boy said that he didn't do anything. Yes, you did. You stood by and watched as your friends beat an innocent man almost to death, a total freaking coward and almost as bad as the others.
