John McGill is an intelligent young boy. His brother however is a miscreant. As John gets older, he falls in with the same rough crowd his brother used to hang with. His life begins to spiral out of control. Wonderfully written, shot and acted, NEDS is a truly great film. It is a coming of age story that show how wrong things can go and how they can be made right again. Note: 'Neds' is Scottish slang meaning the equivalent of a hoodlum or hooligan.
NEDS gets 4 out of 5 Poblanos!
