    London Town tries to swallow a coming of age story amidst poverty, drugs and the Clash. It can't accomplish all it desires, but Rhys Meyers brings a good energy.

    A true story and also best movie of 2016

    Not sure why some reviewers think this film is just a run-of-the-mill coming of age story...there are plenty of elements that aren't run of the mill and also serve to highlight the social context of the period. I thought it was serious and winsome at the same time--a rare combination. Never sappy but sweet in a satisfying way, and thoughtful enough to ensure that grittier aspects of the time are there on the periphery.

    This terrific coming-of-age story tells the story of a 15-year-old boy growing up in punk-era London and his unlikely friendship with Joe Strummer of the Clash. Jonathan Rhys Meyers is perfect casting as Strummer, but young Daniel Huttlestone as Shay is the movie's heart.
