Genres & Description

Action Comedy Crime Drama

7.0 / 10

This bitter sweet comedy follows protagonist Robbie as he sneaks into the maternity hospital to visit his young girlfriend Leonie and hold his newborn son Luke for the first time. Overwhelmed by the moment, he swears that Luke will not have the same tragic life he has had. Escaping a prison sentence by the skin of his teeth, he's given one last chance......While serving a community service order, he meets Rhino, Albert and Mo who, like him, find it impossible to find work because of their criminal records. Little did Robbie imagine how turning to drink might change their lives - not cheap fortified wine, but the best malt whiskies in the world. Will it be 'slopping out' for the next twenty years, or a new future with 'Uisge Beatha' the 'Water of Life?' Only the angels know........

Why is everyone moaning about not being able to understand it? Do you want us to speak with a certain accent just do you can understand it? Fuck off. I struggle to understand the English accent sometimes but you don't see me going onto YouTube and complaining about it. No ones if forcing you to watch. Also technically this movie isn't in English it's in Scots a recognised language spoken to some degree by 75% of Scotland and parts of Northern Ireland. Look it up. You can get Scots to English dictionaries ffs. - @Tuesday, November 19, 2013 12:32 AM

Its not a hard accent to understand. If your not from scotland your just slightly less intelligent that's all. Check the historical and recent evidence of what we have invented, contributed to the world, profits per annum and finally we are the manliest nation in the world voted by recent worldwide polls. Bellys gonna get ya nuff said. - @Tuesday, November 5, 2013 9:39 PM

I'm Scottish and I have to say that a much higher percentage of people in my country have a greater understanding and use the English language in a more intelligent manner than most English speaking people. People are so ignorrant when it comes to the Scots dialect. Really shows a lack of intellect. - @Thursday, October 17, 2013 6:37 PM

Having seen the film, I have to say that whatever language they are speaking, it's not any version of English. In the first half-hour, I understood "hello", "cunt", and "fuck". Literally, that's it. I've seen and enjoyed English-language films from all around the world, with all manner of accents. But this is not one. Subtitles are a must. - @Friday, May 3, 2013 3:06 AM

I'll go see this film because I came to know and love Loach's humor and Honesty at The Charles Theater in Baltimore in the 80's. This slice of life will be both real and beautiful, like life itself! - @Saturday, April 20, 2013 11:46 PM
