I remember Eubank beating him in the early nineties.
This film was brilliant, I'd recommend it to anyone, the lead character just played it so well, the rest of the cast were naturals. Brilliant storyline, plots, dialogue, action and acting.

Just watched it - 11/10.
Nice twist.

I caught this film last night by accident. I can now safely say it is one of my favourite films of all time and by quite a long way. I was completely gripped by it from start to finish.
Utterly terrifying at times. The drug scene was one of the most uncomfortable film moments I've ever seen and a damn good portrayal of the drug in question. Considine's portrayal of a psycho is absolutely mind blowing.
I'm going to make my missus watch it tonight. It'll mentally scar her but will be worth it

Aye paddy considine steals the show in this. Infact the guy who plays anthony does a brilliant job too.
Paddy Considine can act so brilliantly. His mood changes and sinister side in films can be amazing

I watched the first hour last night after seeing this thread and I must say it was fantastic, I'm gonna watch the other half I recorded now.
Edit, Just watched the rest and I have to say it's up there on the best films I've ever seen.

Good film guys but...
Some of the acting is terrible, only at certain times though.
I think it's something Shane Meadows does in his films though becuase the same thing happened in This is England. His actors will be going on fine going from the script and in character, then all of a sudden they are in a scene which seems to be mostly improvisation, and it just doesn't seem right, those scenes just don't fit in and thats all I think of when someone mentions one of his films.

Awesome film.

My uncle Kenny lives on the estate shown in the film. (Hirst Farm Estate in Matlock) I've been in the club where he says "YOU, YA ****!" and I've got to say that the whole area is miserably bleak.
