Victoria Segal New Statesman Sep 26, 2017
For all the filth and fury, Kidulthood is ultimately a moral film - perhaps a bit too moral, if the children's film workshop ending is anything to go by. Go to Full Review
Kat Halstead Common Sense Media Aug 10, 2026
3/5
The movie that put Noel Clarke on the map, this intense crime drama is both hard to watch and difficult to look away from. Go to Full Review

3/4
Despite being rather graphic and unflinching in its subject matter, there is a genuine humanity toward its characters. Go to Full Review
Ryan Cracknell Movie Views Dec 8, 2008
The fact is, while Kidulthood tries to be raw and gritty, it's really just a mish-mash of events that's missing characters that you genuinely care for or even begin to understand. Go to Full Review

Hermione M Jan 10, 2019 fast paced, the music works well throughout and an interesting story. Pretty good.
Draco S Jan 13, 2018 Kidulthood manages to depict the general lives of adolescents during the early 2000s, with gripping and believable acting by the fantastic cast. The film has that dark yet enjoyable tone that gives you knowledge about the daily lives of adolescents and what surrounds them. See more
Kylo R Jun 19, 2011 Nice British backstreet film, Very gripping and entertaining and quite a shocking ending but very well filmed and some nice acting performances too. See more
