Everybody Loves Sunshine is a gritty urban drama that follows the lives of a gang of small-time criminals in West London. The movie is directed by Andrew Goth and stars Rachel Shelley, Clint Dyer and David Baker. The movie opens with a montage of street scenes and graffiti shots, setting the tone for the gritty, urban setting of the story. The main character is a young man named Terry (played by Dyer), a small-time criminal with a heart of gold who is struggling to survive in the criminal underworld.

Terry and his crew are a ragtag group of criminals who are always on the lookout for their next score. They steal cars, rob shops, and sell drugs to make ends meet. However, they soon find themselves in hot water when they cross paths with a local drug kingpin named Hoodpig (played by Baker).

Hoodpig is a ruthless gangster who will stop at nothing to protect his turf. When Terry and his crew steal drugs from Hoodpig's stash, they find themselves on the run from both the police and Hoodpig's henchmen.

Meanwhile, Terry falls in love with a local girl named Nicky (played by Shelley) who works at a cafe near his apartment. Nicky is a free spirit who dreams of escaping the city and starting a new life somewhere else. Terry sees her as the perfect antidote to his chaotic life of crime, and the two begin a passionate love affair.

As the tension between Terry's crew and Hoodpig escalates, the movie becomes a thrilling cat-and-mouse game between the two groups. The action is fast-paced and intense, with plenty of shootouts, car chases and gritty, street-level violence.

At its heart, Everybody Loves Sunshine is a story of redemption and loyalty. Terry is the kind of protagonist you can't help but root for, even when he's making questionable choices. He's a man with a troubled past, but a good heart who is trying to do the right thing.

The supporting cast is also excellent, with several standout performances from Baker as the menacing Hoodpig, and Shelley as the conflicted Nicky. The script does a great job of weaving together the various subplots, building to a climactic conclusion that is both satisfying and emotionally resonant.

Overall, Everybody Loves Sunshine is a gritty, thrilling crime drama that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. It's a story about love, friendship, and loyalty set against the backdrop of a dangerous, unforgiving city. Highly recommended for fans of gritty urban dramas.
