When I saw this film it was amazing and I was so glad to be studying as I am a film student. However, I renewed the movie for 99p and paid for it and as I go to watch it is unavailable. Now I know 99p is not a lot of money but I just thought I would warn others just in case.

This film is nothing short of a modern masterpiece. If you've never seen it you don't know what you're missing. Watch it and you will soon know. So many actors, and Danny Boyle, owe their career to this film. Watch it, just watch it
