Dead Man's Shoes

I can't believe it's taken me so long to finally see this film. I also can't believe that it's not as well-known as I thought it was. Dead Man's Shoes was released in the UK almost four years ago; more people need to this movie, now.

The film is directed by Shane Meadows and stars Paddy Considine as a returning soldier who dishes out revenge on the men who harmed his mentally challenged brother Anthony (played by Toby Kebbell). There's really not much more than that plot-wise. However the writing, direction and acting of this film is what really makes it worth it. It really is a text-book example of how a movie should be done.
