Konterr Brilliant and touching
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
mynamesniall i personally loved the movie however it is more of a guilty pleasure as i can tell it isn't a 'good' movie on technical terms however i did find it amusing.I do not believe it is at all representative, realistic or possible i did find in extremely entertaining it was more of a guilty pleasure watch and there is some good British humor in there (sorry yanks you just wont understand). its funny violent and just a 'lads' movie to watch with a pizza. the 2 real negative comment i have is you can tell its a low budget movie what is disappointing as i fully believe with the right backing had potential to be great but my biggest criticism is i thought the movie was going to be about football hooliganism and the 'barmy army' but i think there might have been one reference to football throughout the whole movie which severely disappointed me
A Hillier There were certain points when i quite liked this, for me , the first 30 Min's but the incredibly poor decision to introduce a psychotic/maverick pursuer who we were supposed to believe was associated with the Police destroyed all semblance of realism. It was a shame as i was drawn to finding out what would happen until the end even though i ended up fast forwarding through the vignettes to give characters more depth i suppose but actually just slowed down the pace of the film. Ending up doing my own editing which is not a good sign. What really annoyed me was the ending as hate films that just bottle out on happy/sad ending. Felt the acting in the main was OK but as said previously the most charismatic character to go early was a strange decision.Female character was criminally under developed. Shame.
FlashCallahan First off, it's got nothing at all to do with football hooliganism. There is one scene where one geeza' is telling a woman that he used to fight at football matches, but the fundamental part of the narrative is that there is a heist a guess what? It's only gone bloomin' wrong!!!And he's avin' a larf!!!That's the writer director that is. As you would expect,the film is the pits, and these films, like low budget horrors get released almost every other week here in the UK, the covers are more or less the same, and there is always some sort of scribing on the cover like 'the best British thriller since The Long Good Friday' to get the working class man worked up.But it's like the director has watched too much Tarantino and Guy Ritchie movies and tried to do his own version. There are monologues about fast food, boxing and obviously a double cross, and its horrible to watch.The characters are all stereotypical of this sort of movie, one has a heart of gold because of his past, one is a nutter, one is a family man, and one is ex forces who says a prayer before the robbery.Righto then. The supposed monologues are cringe worthy, the suits are something out of Buddy's Song, and there is a twist at the end, that irritates.Oh and there is a bent copper. There's always a bent copper.If I could put a scribing on the DVD cover, it would simply say 'pfft'.
leonblackwood Review: I thought that this movie was going to be about football hooligans, but it's got nothing to do with football at all. Basically it's about a group of group of men who rob a bank and then go on the run from the law, taking a hostage with them. It's not your typical violent, cockney British gangster movie because the bunch of criminals really haven't got a clue about how there going to get away. It some ways it's a watchable comedy, but then the storyline gets interesting when the twists and turns of each individual situation comes into play. The acting is pretty average along with the storyline, but it's not as bad as a lot of British gangster movies that I have seen lately. Not Bad!Round-Up: There are some recognisable faces in the movie, but there not A-listers. I can't see how this movie fits into the other films in this franchise and I thought that the ending could have been a bit better. I didn't have high expectations for the film so I wasn't totally disappointed, if anything, I was surprised that the director concentrated on the wit and the script more than the violence, sex and drugs, like many other movies in this genre. In all, it's a short movie which you end up sticking with, just to see how the story unfolds. Budget: $3million Worldwide Gross: N/AI recommend this movie to people who are into there heist movies about a group of bank robbers on the run. 3/10
