29th Greatest Music Film October 4, 2007
At least according to Tinme Out Magazine's poll of the best 50 music films ever. Personally I would rate it higher than 'Rude Boy' at number 12 which was crap and only redeemed by the live footage. This is a great movie which shows the surprising levels of violence meted out to young people at the time. It's a gas that the various cults, bands and fans all hate each other so much. No on is more opinionated than a young punk is what I say. According to Amazon this is about to be available as a re-issue with a new cover. Not sure if it has any new stuff in it but the extras on this are pretty good. Great update film that is as laugh out loud as the original. Long live the Cockney Rejects. Mad as pants and scarier than the Pistols.
Excellent Punky/Funky/Factory Film September 8, 2006

What a brilliant film. I heard so much about it before I bought it, I was expecting to be disappointed. But the way it's edited and the brilliant stuff filmed on the streets of London and Manchester really lifted it out of the ordinary. Compared to the more celebrated Don Letts movies like '100 Days of the Roxy' or 'Punk Rock Movie' I felt the bands featured weren't as seminal or high profile, but the documentary element made it much funnier, more eclectic and just plain fascinating. It gives a snapshot of a time when I wasn't living in the UK and so missed something extraordinary.
As for the opening montage with 'Island of Lost Souls' soundtrack....Patrik Fitzgerald rules.

This movie captures something I'd almost forgotten until its brilliant evocation of the time brought back all the beery, inter-cult rivalry and violence heavy atmosphere of the most turbulent time in music. These guys must have been at every gig I was. They shared the extraordinary eclectism of the period that had us bopping to ska one minute, pogoing the next and discovering aciiiiiid by the end. Holy moly its a retro-fest for guys of my age and an eye opener for Green Day boys. Know your history you Rancid fans and see what it was like before you got to buy your punk in Woolworths.

Rough Cut & Ready Dubbed', Hasan Shah & Dom Shaw's fabulous long unseen movie of the post-punk period between 1978 and 1981 that is more than just a music record, featuring as it does the looks, the poses, the rucks, the riots and the slaggings of bands and their fans. Accompanied on DVD by a hilarious companion film called 'Rough Cut & Ready Dubbed Re-visited (2005)', with terrific footage of the Wasted Festival and some of the original bands 25 years on. DVD also includes an interview with the directors' Dom & Hasan on the making of the original and the new update. Also has some cracking performances from exponents of Punk, Mod, Oi and Ska all filmed in the same DIY ethic that spawned punk itself. Sometimes dark and prophetic, sometimes hilariously funny, the film was the winner of the Grierson Award for best documentary on its original theatrical release in 1982 and is now available for a new generation to enjoy.

Brilliant! I woz there and post punk is perfectly reflected in this funny, violent, scary doc that tells it like it is. I agree the Purple Hearts are amazing, but I also loved SLF and Patrik Fitzgerald. His plaintive acoustic nihilism is much missed. All those who think Billy Bragg was the first, check out little Pat.
