10/10
Its Trainspotting in Grimsby.
6 March 2023
Only writing this because one plonker gave it a 1/10 by mistake.

The accent are off, but better than Sasha Baron Cohen - all in all a good film to get to know Grimsby. It a recently deprived town and needs to be saved from the waves before its too late.

I lived there for a year and the people are good honest hard working citizens and are land sick waiting to back to sea. Losing The Cod wars of the 1950s and 1960s has put Grimsby in a limbo, not quiet dead not quiet alive. Was also heavily bombed in WW2. Add a splash of fishing regulations and you have trawler skippers putting glacia cherrys on buns in factories.

I hope this film puts Grimsby on the map, its got a huge potential.
