Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

DowntonR1 A thinly plotted movie with comic moments that mostly don't work, and fight scenes that fail to convince ( except the last one). Margi Clarke is fine in the lead, Ken Hutchinson good too but Carroll Baker pretty much steals every scene she's in, she's deserving of a better film.

Leofwine_draca Whether you enjoy BLONDE FIST or not really depends on how much you like working class comedies made in Liverpool. Me, I'm rather indifferent to their charms, and I found this story - posited as THELMA & LOUISE meets ROCKY - pretty drawn out and unengaging. It's a star vehicle for the forgotten TV starlet Margi Clarke, directed by her own brother, but she gives a lame performance here and comes across as cold and unsympathetic throughout. The ridiculous story is described as a boxing drama, but such moments are few and far between and very unconvincing when they do appear. A scene in which a character gets hit and you hear cartoonish bird tweet noises really sets the level here. I laughed at exactly two funny scenes: Clarke's fight with a youthful Tina Malone has some good dialogue (and Stephen Graham in one of his first roles), and the prison chat in which Clarke's friend says she wants to make something of her life, by becoming a prostitute, are amusing. The rest? A struggle, if I'm honest.

theandytaylor This is one of my favourite films of all times. I've watched it dozens of times. The plot of the film is probably less important than the brilliant one-liners and cameos, although maybe you have to be British to understand the subtle but incandescently funny subtexts that run through the whole film. Margi is an excellent actress although I guess her in depth experience of the Liverpool psyche means she was playing a role that was kind of like just being herself a lot of the time maybe?You have to realise that not all the lines are meant literally. Like in the fight scene at the beginning of the programme (has me in stitches every time I watch it). The wonderful Margi Clarke gets fisty cuffs with the superb actress Tina Malone. Tina warns Margi "Now GIT... Before I throw a bucket of p&*^ss water over ya". This is a classically hilarious line. Please don't construe from this that all people in Northern England keep a bucket of urine water handy, ready to throw over aggressive strangers.:)A

rayday This film requires few words of commentary. The plot is laughable, the script dismal and the acting appalling. However, as a Liverpudlian myself, I have rarely felt as embarrassed as I was by Margi Clarke's grotesque performance. She makes a laughing stock of Liverpool people. A dud without equal.
