Please help me translate this Dutch text into English: Ik was nooit van plan geweest om de film te zien  ik had er zelfs nog nooit van gehoord  maar toevallig zette ik de tv aan toen hij net begon. Ik zag Denzel Washington (kom op, jongens, wat is hij knap) en besloot te gaan kijken waar de film over ging. En jemig, ik was stomverbaasd. Het was Engeland vanuit een totaal andere hoek dan ik vroeger (als toerist en uitwisselingsstudent) kende. Ik moet toegeven dat het beeld soms zo negatief was dat ik begon te vermoeden dat het heel eenzijdig was.

I never intended to see the movie - in fact I'd never heard of it - but accidentally I turned on the TV just as it was beginning, I saw Denzel Washington (come on, guys, he IS gorgeous) and decided to see what it's going to be about. And jeez, I was stunned. It was Britain showed from a totally different angle that I used to know (as a tourist and an exchange student). At moments, I must admit, the picture that emerged was that negative that I started suspecting it must be very much one-sided.But coming back to the story: a veteran (Northern Ireland and the Falklands) comes back to the part of London where he used to live only to find the world from which he tried to escape unchanged - probably even worse. His former buddies, with whom he used to get into troubles, continue to do so, only with much graver consequences.
