CGiii Comment

It tries just a little too hard to be funny...when comedy is forced is falls flat.

There are a couple of good scenes...and, a few more that should have been left on the editing-room's floor.

The(ir) Blurb...

On a deprived council estate in Northeast London, eccentric teenager Leroy Brown spends his days fighting with his wannabe ‘gangsta’ brother Kenny, making his own jewellery and playing an amusement arcade dance game with best friend Yukiko. The sudden death of his beloved grandfather Nelson forces Leroy out of his shell, but with the help of a cassette tape Nelson left him, Leroy learns what it takes to live in a ‘man’s world’.
