Saw this yesterday evening, followed by Q&A with Ken Loach. Enjoyed the film very much, especially so as the cinema was packed, and the Q&A discussion was excellent.
Great cast including newcomer Paul Brannigan in the lead - KL and Paul Laverty (the writer) found him while researching in local youth centres. Happy-ish ending, but not so happy that it didn't make you think about the social issues which KL always raises in his work.
Definitely recommend this for an uplifting and entertaining viewing! Oh, and James McAvoy's sister Joy has a small part giving a guided tour of a distillery - apparently the distillery thought she was so good that they asked to stay on and give a few more tours after shooting finished.
