Very well executed

Crwthod

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Borgarkeri

A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Catangro

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Most movies made in the U.S. nowadays are pretty low brow and seem to cater to Hollywood elites and their sophomoric sensibilities. Not so with the British and Australian film industry. Solid story, characters are well defined, actors are top notch though not widely known. The weaving of the story in chapters works well. I have been a fan of the British gangster films for quite sometime now. Pistols are held and fired as pistols, violence is in your face when it needs to be and subtle when it adds to the story. Nothing gratuitous about it. Good direction as well. If you are fan of the genre this is a little known gem.

I have not read the other reviews of this film (there are currently only 2 others) but I was losing my faith in these 'typical' London gangster films until this just came along...Many of the actors in this you'll have never seen in anything else which makes them far more believable than they would be otherwise. They are all very good actors too - far better than the usual Danny Dyer copycats. .....some seriously dangerous and warped characters in this film too and I can tell you there are people out there just like these...The film is about as violent, bloody and predictable as you'd like, (predictability is not an issue) but it is presented as a serious of chapters, shown in non chronological order very much like Pulp Fiction. For anyone saying it is a rip off of Pulp Fiction, well, I have seen few films in the last 20 years which have been presented in a similar fashion while actually being able to pull it off. Each time a chapter ended, I was praying the end credits were not about to appear!! 10/10

This is a great movie there is no way around that. Told in the shuffled "Pulp Fiction" style, and told very well. The entire cast are fantastic, and the story as it pulls you this way, and that is so very smooth. There are moments in this movie that are so well built up that once we get to the final crossroads of the story where all of the pieces are brought together you can feel the tension, and are on the edge of your seat wondering who will actually be walking away from this. This cast of characters is so well blended, but so very British and in the best way. I don't even have to tell you at this point, but yes I really did Enjoy this movie, and would whole heartedly recommend it to every adult out there. This movie is not for kids, it's not a slasher film, but the language, and content is just not what kids should see just yet, but of course that is dealers choice. Heavy on the language, with a real salting of violence, and very adult content, but if those are things you can handle, then have at it, and you will be glad you did.

What can i say about this film but go and see it, brilliant acting, brilliant Directing, Brilliant soundtrack, Brilliant story line everything in a film i like. Great British film making at its best. Will keep you gripped all the way through was busting for the toilet for the last half hour but sat tight, did not want to miss anything. Don t want to give away much about the story it will spoil it for you. Graphic, epic, funny and surprising. that s all i am going to say Was at VUE cinema shepherds bush last night with cast and crew what a great bunch of people another reason why everyone should go and see the movie. all the best to cast and crew the film will be a great success.
