This is How Movies Should Be Made

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

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

This is an interesting movie that could also be a 4 man (3 men, 1 woman) play. A businessman (Craig Conway) hires a detective (Sean Pertwee) to kidnap his wife's lover (Martin Compston) and bring him to the proverbial warehouse so he can rough him up.He also kidnaps his wife (Kierston Wareing) for good measure. The movie then takes a number of twists as the four interact. Who is really in charge?Good acting. Good dialogue.Parental Guide: F-bomb, no sex or nudity. Sex talk. C-word.

I watched this late as I could not sleep. Yes it did have a little Chuckle Brother humour - but it did lighten it up. I knew it was not going to be too serious the way Sean Pertwee was knocking the crap out of the kidnapped man and the man was able to respond in a tone which you would use to order a pizza - although he did get better. The premise was a good one but the film could have been different and a lot darker, but for light entertainment it was good.Sean is always a pleasure to watch and the Welsh lead was a bit wishy washy however the female character was brilliant. She certainly took control of the situation - which the viewer could see from a distance.Worth a watch but don't expect social or ethical undertones.

Oh it's one of those twisty turny thrillers where the husband kidnaps his wife's boyfriend, scares him a little then Sean Pertwee tells the husband that he should tell his wife, but then, Surprise! hes already kidnapped his wife and shes in the other room.But, it's not his wife, and it turns out to be, Surprise! Pertwees wife and she is sleeping with the bloke in the other room, so their is really no need for the husband to be there in the first place type movie.With a little sub plot involving a serial killer.It sound tosh, complete tosh, and for the most part it is, but thanks to Pertwee, the film is at least watchable. and it never out stays its welcome, thanks to the bonkers plot, and the ridiculous twists it keeps sending us.My only problem is with he guy who plays 'Husband'. he gets really annoying very quickly and on several occasions I was willing Pertwees character to give him a smack.So the film is nothing new, and offers nothing revelatory, but it's short, entertaining in all the wrong ways, and like I said, Pertwee is great, if you like Pertwee.

I probably shouldn't have watched this. I'd skimmed through some of the bad reviews but thought maybe it would still be OK. After all, I'm a sucker for a four-hander play, set in one location. Anyway, as you can guess from the title of this review, I should have heeded the message. It is a poor film. Funnily enough it seems clear that the makers have genuinely tried hard to make something good. It just isn't.The dialogue is poor and unrealistic, the writer constantly betrays his characters, scenarios are derivative and the movie just feels too contrived. In addition, although a useful premise to start with, the ending is far too weak. Less is more might have made for a more effective film. A better writer would've done too.
