Slo-mo twerking, lots of naked ladies and plenty of sniggering about sex spice up this otherwise anodyne, Hollyoaks-style comedy
If nothing else, this broad comedy about a bunch of schoolkids who decide to start their own nightclub knows what its target demographic likes, and delivers: teen camaraderie, underdog victories, bleep-bleep dance music backing slo-mo shots of people twerking, lots of naked ladies and sniggering, sweary sex humour. Take out the last few, 15-certificate elements and it’s more anodyne than an average episode of Hollyoaks since nobody takes any drugs and the main cast are all, deep down, really nice kids. Noel Clarke, who should bring in a following via his grittier Kidulthood franchise, is listed as a producer, but Marc Small and Davie Fairbanks actually hold the directing reins. They imbue the proceedings with a sense of salty, Inbetweeners-style fun but have mixed success with their mostly overacting young leads.

Small in scale but grand in swagger, Noel Clarke movies delve into corners of London life you won’t find explored elsewhere. His latest production, Legacy, is another slice of urban drama that’s headlined by Attack The Block’s Franz Drameh. A new clip from the film has dropped onto the internet. Click below for a closer look.brightcove.createExperiences();The scene sees Pj (McKell David) looking to make a big score from the council estate dealer ahead of a massive party he and his four mates are attending. The fact that his dealer lives with his mum, has names for his frying fish and is looking to move into novel-writing is a clue that it’s not kitchen-sink realism co-directors Davie Fairbanks and Marc Small have in mind for the movie.Ring-led by Sean (Drameh), the five mates find their plans to get into the party of a lifetime – Chrome!

Back in July last year a nationwide casting call was launched to find some new talent for Legacy, a new film from Unstoppable Entertainment and Think Big Productions.
Exec Produced by Noel Clarke (4.3.2.1, The Anomaly) and Jason Maza (The Knot, The Hooligan Factory) Legacy tells the story of five teenagers and the ultimate party of the year.
After auditioning hundreds of girls with no previous professional experience, Amy Tyger from Manchester won the lead female role of Dani. 21 year old Amy is now represented by Cole Kitchenn.
Dani is strong willed, fierce, aggressive yet still lovable, she is protective and more than a match for the groups’ machismo. She’s an attractive tomboy with deep-rooted femininity issues exacerbated by her elder sister Yasmin.
21 year old Franz Drameh (represented by Hamilton Hodell) plays Sean, the unspoken leader of the group.
Franz starred in Attack The Block, and he also plays Brandon...

Director: Johannes Roberts. Writers: Noel Clarke, Davie Fairbanks and Marc Small. Cast: Noel Clarke, Colin O'Donoghue, Antonia Campbell-Hughes, Laura Haddock, Jamie Thomas King, Alex Price, Ned Dennehy, Geoff Bell, Ruth Gemmell, Davie Fairbanks, and Amy Pemberton. Storage 24 is a small sci-fi thriller? from the United Kingdom. Written partially by Noel Clarke of Kidulthood, this film never steps out of a predictable framework. Perhaps, the one shooting location stops this film from finding true heights. Whatever the case, eighty minutes of cat and mouse interchange is not enough to recommend Storage 24 to many. Noel Clarke writes an interesting sub-plot involving infidelity, but he also writes his own character, Charlie, much like a shining white knight. The film and this character are hard to tolerate. Creature feature film fans will be able to tell how this film will play out. An alien crash lands next to a storage facility. Once on the ground,...
