So started peeling this off a window and half of the film has come off but the rest is stuck and its really difficult to remove.
Is there anything i can spray on there that will eat away at the film so i can get it back to glass easily?

Ok, then the film almost certainly has a dry adhesive, as opposed to a pressure sensitive adhesive used with automotive films. Don't waste your money on any chemicals, the only effective way of removing this film is with one of these and a good supply of sharp blades.
I usually use a bit of detergent mixed with water sprayed on the window. This helps avoid the adhesive smearing back onto the glass (only experience will demonstrate what I mean). The only thing to watch out for is large panes normally found in sliders or French doors that carry the 'S' mark. This is toughened glass and, depending on the quality, can be very prone to scratching. There is no silver bullet to avoid this - best advice is to use a sharp blade to minimise damage.
Good luck.
By the way (hope this makes you feel better), with a bit of practice you should be able to clean an average pane in about 10 or 15 minutes.
