Brilliant all round. Was surprised to find out the main actress was Haley from EastEnders. Brilliant acting, enthralling...Andrea Arnold director is superb. If you like ken loach films, u'll live this.

Dark and gritty story which really leaves you not liking any character. Nobody is particularly pleasant or decent. It’s like a 1960’s kitchen sink drama where nobody has a heart of gold. I found it well made and acted (if a little Ken Louch) but far too depressing to enjoy again on a rainy day.

*Fish Tank is the story of a 15 year old girl living on a rough estate in Essex. She uses dance as a form of escapism. When her potential step father shows an interest it starts a strange relationship between the two. *Fish Tank is extremely hard hitting and at times even quite horrific. But this is very realistic and the story is told in a very convincing way. Their are a lot of issues affecting the youth in the UK and this film tackles them head on. Sometimes this maybe a little hard hitting for some viewer's. *In some ways the film also reminded me of a modern day & harder hitting 'Kes'. The story is similar in the sense it shows the struggle of trying to escape the girls background and the things that hold her back. Again like Kes, there isn't a lot of action but there is a great social observation.Read full review
