    • Quotes

      [as Alistair is using a cash machine, two muggers walk up close behind him]

      Mugger: [pulling out a knife] Don't scream. Don't look at me. Just put in the PIN number, take out 200.

      Young Hooded Man: Come on, put in the fucking PIN number!

      Alistair Ryle: [as he waits for machine to give him the money] It's uh, it's actually just "PIN".

      Mugger: What?

      Alistair Ryle: The N stands for number, it's Personal Identification Number. So, if you say "PIN Number" you're saying "number" twice. You're saying "Personal Identification Number Number". It's just... it's just wrong.

      [the second mugger shoves him and he bangs his head against the wall and falls to the ground]

      Mugger: You think you're fucking clever?

      Alistair Ryle: Jesus, please!

      Mugger: Shut it, you posh twat. Pompous little prick.

      [he spits on him and walks away]

    So good, never want to watch it again
    I found it a really profound storyline. Meaningful. Colourful. A peak into the modern (and ancient) class divides in the UK. And now horrible rich peopls are.

    I was captivated as I sat in terror through this movie. Shocked, not by violence, but by the attitude of the memebers of the Riot Club. The lack of empathy, care, humanity.

    I enjoyed how the plot shifted and got me constantly guessing who is the antagonist and who's the protagonist. It was also a really beautiful movie. The cinematography was great, but not overly original.

    Great acting from Sam Clafin.

    But the greatness of this movie is the storyline. Its so good, striking and upsetting that I never want to watch it again.
