Although the first hour is controlled and captivating, the second hour becomes script-messy, loses intensity and is too long: the movie should have been 15-20min shorter.
As for John's character, though there was material, he lacks depth, his psychology and increase in power are not enough controlled, and I failed to feel strong emotions towards him.
Neds can be compared to This Is England, and though the latter was a little different, I preferred it because everything was better described: script, character, psychology, message. Neds, still, is a fair movie.
