A Room for Romeo Brass (4 Stars)

This is a very enjoyable film. Two young boys, best friends and next-door neighbours, are being beat up in the park, when a man comes to their rescue. The man soon becomes a part of their lives, but they discover he's not as benevolent as he seems. The strength of this film isn't in its plot, but in the atmosphere it conjures up.

Frank Harper, who plays Romeo's father, deserves special mention. He delivers an award-winning performance as a man trying to keep his temper under control.
