Rupert Grint takes another faltering step towards a post-wizarding world in this modest drama about drinking, drugging, shagging, shoplifting, joyriding Belfast teens.
Harry Potter’s top chum is clearly striving to stretch himself – including wrestling admirably with a Northern Ireland accent – but still appears shackled by the Hogwarts rulebook.
As Malachy, he inhales and joins underage loins with brainy minx Michelle (Kimberley Nixon), but, hampered by the dweeby, straight-Astudent confines of his role, his hellraising keeps to the mild side, leaving Robert Sheehan to set off Cherrybomb’s loudest bang as his bad-influence best mate.
Shame, as making Grint the troubled teen mutineer would have given this the kick it needs. In fact, a few flashy visual tricks aside, putting ‘bomb’ in their title is the only truly risqué thing about Lisa Barros D’Sa and Glenn Leyburn’s rookie outing.
