Speaking of bad father figures, young Shaun couldn’t have picked a worse replacement than Combo, played with terrifying ferocity by Stephen Graham. Just when the angry child was starting to calm down and do the things a 12 year old should be doing (shaving his head, wearing Ben Sherman clothes), along comes a violent white supremacist that poor Shaun doesn’t know any better than to be convinced by. It’s a good thing his mother, who lets him hang out with people ten years older than he is, set such a good example.
