Quite simply 'Mischief Night' is a hidden gem of the British film industry. The story will captivate you, its frankness will astound you and the performances dazzle without exception. The pace of the film is fantastic - and it is accompanied by a melodic soundtrack, that like the film is a unique mix of east and west - as only can be found in the UK. Penny Woolcock deserves many more plaudits than she recieved for this film - the direction is inspired, and Robbie Ryan's cinematography is saturated with colour - leaving us wondering what fantasy world we may have found ourselves in. This is essentially the funniest British film I have seen for many, many years - it leaves other films of this genre - Bend it like Beckham, East is East amongst them - standing at the start line. This is a fantastic movie!!

If you liked east is East then you're going to love this.
oddly enough I saw this in the USA and didn't know it existed. How this fantastic little film got forgotten in the UK beggars belief.
It was so good I spent several weeks trying to track it down (The title) so I could get it for my family to watch. It's a gritty, funny little film, filled with lots of 'funny but true' moments.
It's not hollywood, but very much that 'real' flavour of a movie like 'Shaun of the dead'

I got quite excited to see this release as it looked similar to Shameless but don't be fooled - it's not nearly as good!

Mischief Night
Good product, had to wait nearly a whole month for it to be delivered. Thought it could've been a bit quicker. Other than that though everything else was fine.

. A big let down
after all the reviews I had read on here I purchased this film expecting great things. But I was disappointed not many laughs and feels a little dated.
