I wanted to but couldn't!

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Fresh and Exciting

Fantastic!

Similar sentiments appeared to be echoed by Noel Clarke, as this semi-spoof of his two Hood films caused a clash between Clarke and Adam Deacon on Twitter. It's a shame it overshadows Anuvahood, because it's an easily watchable film that flies along like all good cartoons do, even though it's nevertheless an odd mix.While fairly amusing, subtlety is not in evidence here. Deacon's character works at a supermarket called Laimsbury's and all concerned roll their eyes, overplay their dialogue, exaggerate body language... it's a full on sillyfest where even Big Brother's Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace is on hand to spoof her own Big Brother catchphrase, pretend to receive cunnilingus and reference Mike Tyson. Fun for what it is, if you're prepared to get in on the gag, but never possessing anything remotely resembling reality or intelligence.And yet... fifteen minutes before the end the whole thing changes. Not only are we suddenly supposed to believe in, and care for, Deacon's band of two dimensional comic misfits, but the violence is ramped up. And this isn't comic violence, as demonstrated throughout the film, but sickening, graphic bloodied violence that makes Kidulthood and Adulthood put together appear tame.It's an unusual decision that throws the film completely, like having the climax to Reservoir Dogs serve as an ending to Laurel and Hardy's Way Out West. Sure, other cartoons have gone in for face-distorting occurrences... but after Tom's face was smashed in by an iron he could always put it back to normal two frames later.

Watching Anuvahood, it becomes clear very quickly that Adam Deacon the director was trying to make a British version of Friday, the classic American 'ghetto' comedy. Almost every aspect of the film has been influenced by Friday; for example the theme tune of the neighbourhood bully in Anuvahood is basically the same as the one in Friday but with a beat added to it! However, it doesn't come anywhere near to the brilliance of Friday, not even close! The main problem is that in Anuvahood all the main characters are played so stupidly over-the-top for the whole film (watch it and you'll understand). If you're looking for clever, subtle humour then look elsewhere.Having said all that, Anuvahood does have its moments and overall it was quite entertaining (it is undeniably a unique and quirky film); some bits are VERY funny (my favourite was with the African traffic warden!)and it has some truly disgusting bits (one involving ketchup and feet).However, for most of the film I wasn't laughing, just thinking "Friday is so much better than this."One more thing; if you're not familiar with the slang of the 'gangsters' in London, definitely don't bother coming to see it!

Oh my God this film was hilarious, I literally laughing out loud and I was in the cinema on my own ( that is how sad I am ) Anyways I wouldn't say this was a film for men and women over the age of 30 as it is more of a teenager and young film , but like who cares what the older people think right there flab over there eyelids won't let them see anyways so they don't know what the film is all about ! They acting in the film was spot on and for a budget of around 1,000,000 dollars or whatever currency it is that is pretty well made. Remember all you Anuvahood fans FRUITELLA IS A BADMAN SWEET YA GET ME !!!10/10 good work Deacon :)

This is not a Kidulthood/Adulthood... far from it..It is looks to be a comedy from the trailer, but ends up being a weak comedy-drama.The language in this film is London 'street' for a majority of it and perhaps only suit a certain audience. The characters aren't likable to be honest even the character Kenneth annoys you at times. There are only a few funny scenes. Mostly involving the character Tyrone, but some of it just unintentional.Is it watchable..just about...but once you have you wished you hadn't bothered.The script is poor and you feel you seen it all before, but only better written and acted.
