The two heroes are shown living in Wester Hailes housing estate (just down the road from where I live) and riding their motor bike around Edinburghs countryside. This film shows two likeable Scot lads having a great time escaping the boredom of living in one of Edinburgh's less desirable housing estates by commiting a few crimes politely.
I think you might just need to be Scottish or live locally to get some of the jokes made in this film on the Scottish Tourist Industry.
A good feel-good film, with a great sound track. If it was on DVD, I'd buy it in an instant!
Trivia - My mate Liam Rudden was an extra on this film and now is Editor of the Arts and Media section of the Edinburgh Evening News Newspaper. Good on ye son!
score 8/10
