Wonderful character development!

Undescribable Perfection

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

A London gangster awakes in a remote, old fashioned town in Italy after a serious and life threatening altercation in a nightclub and is forced to ponder his past. The audience is always ahead of the slow moving story which makes for laborious viewing. I wondered if we were in for a remake of "Ghost" but instead a very predictable plot unfolds. Flashbacks don't assuage the feeling. We just get more characters, some non-actors and drivel as backstory. The film wastes talent like Ray Winstone who is left to chew up the scenery to awful redundancy playing a ridiculous wastrel. We don't even get closure. The only characters we are left to get behind play a minor part. The soundtrack is conspicuously contrived, and of low credibility. The only thing going for it is the locations. Otherwise, it is a simple melodrama littered with foul-mouth dialogue, cynically packaged as a high octane gangster thriller.

agree with others who have said the cover for this movie is misleading, it's not about ray Winstone being a London gangster, far from it, it's about an apparent gangster figuring out why he's woken up in Italy. if he is a tough gangster, why doesn't he even try to change things that are happening? he does''t even try to do anything the whole movie. lot's of reviews have said it's obvious what's going on, but it's lost on me, i don't think even think the people that made this know exactly what happened, it certainly doesn't seem like they tried to make it make any sense of any kind. Not the worst movie ever though, and it had it's moments, although anyone going into it wanting to watch The Business or Sexy Beast will defiantly be disappointed

I saw this movie as a DVD that I picked up in a sale basket and to be honest I did not expect much given the price but being fond of Winstone, I thought that for three pounds I could not lose out. This has probably been one of the better choices I have made for a while, because while the film at first confuses the viewer, the tone changes as a dark bleak certainty is more than hinted at.Ray Winstone is as always powerful, if not utterly terrifying, the implication that his character is capable of "things other men are not" is brutally laid out in this tragically dark movie about family.Although the story arc becomes quickly apparent to a switched on viewer, the fear of the brutality that some of the characters can unleash makes viewing occasionally an uncomfortable experience, but persevere through this because the end is most unexpected.

Lords Of London (2014)Plot: Unconventional British gangster movie directed by Antonio Simoncini. London gangster Tony Lord (Glen Murphy) is forced to reflect on his past misdeeds when he is transported back to 1950s Italy, where his mother and father originally met and fell in love. Knowing the damaging nature of his father (Christopher Hatherall)'s future wrongdoings, Tony takes the opportunity to stop his mother (Serena Iansiti) from leaving Italy with him and changes the course of history as a result...Review: It really gets on my nerves when people put a picture on poster to promote a movie, which has totally nothing to do with the film. Ray Winstone is only in a couple of scenes, and he doesn't hold a gun in none of them. Also the whole film is set in Italy so I don't know why they changed the title from Lost in Italy, which was more appropriate, to Lords Of London. Anyway, I found the movie to be quite boring and sketchy. It's one of those films which go back and forth in time, which I hate, and it doesn't really make much sense. After watching the guy wall around the town over and over again, without anyone actually noticing him, I just got bored of the whole thing and I lost interest. The storyline needed a lot more work, but the actors weren't that bad. Personally I thought that the film was a massive disappointment and I was totally misled by the poster.Round-Up: Ray Winstone is really good when he is playing the old swearing, angry, cockney gangster roles, but he was wasted in this movie. He should have played the lead. I liked the old Italian guy, who brought some light to the movie, but the storyline was appalling. I think that I'm right by thinking that the main character was in limbo, but I don't know why the director had to make the whole think so complicated. If he was trying to be clever with the storyline, then he done a really bad job. Anyway, that aside, the music seemed like it was done on someone's phone, which does start to become a bit tedious whilst watching the film, and the ending could have explained what the hell was you watching the last hour and a half.Budget: $3.4million Worldwide Gross: N/AI recommend this movie to people who are into there flashback and forth type of movies about a guy who wakes up in Italy. 2/10
