Fakers

this film is so good. it shows what us brits are Capable when they try. its as good a most big budget Hollywood films and Deserves the respect of every one. the only thing that lets it down is the fact that it was not a big budget movie, but with that in mind the film makers have managed to make a very fun and enjoyable film the writing of this is amazing and flows very well. i hope Paul Gerstenberger writes many more films as from the looks of this movie he has a very good talent. i recommend any person to go buy/rent this if u want a film that will entertain you and make you laugh at the best of times.

This was a really fun little movie something akin to a poor man's Cary Grant caper romp and had all the twists and turns you'd expect from lightweight fare without any pretensions, or deviations.

The characters were fun, clearly defined and never took themselves too seriously. The acting was first rate, especially the principals, among whom I must mention Art Malik as the villainous enforcer, excellent in everything he does.

Liked it so much when I saw it last year I've just ordered the DVD - I just hope it'll play on my DVD player.

Some more movies like this thanks...

With multiple twists and a skewed comedic narrative, this art forgery crime caper keeps itself interesting even though we have seen the genre. The crime boss may steal the show, but a lot of work goes into setting everything up. The main characters have their own quirks and history which makes them more believable as movie characters although not with enough individual development to make us really sympathize with them. The third level characters continue the pattern of individual variation which makes for some more comedy and uncertainty as to the next event. The whole very large audience of over one thousand people was laughing loudly and frequently. Definitely worth checking out if you get the chance.

Gangster Chic in which a conman who owes £50,000 finds a rare sketch from an old Italian artist and makes copies to raise enough cash to pay his debt. The treatment is entertaining, funny without destroying the tension, but lacks the depth or breadth to justify the price of admission in the face of worthier movies.

In retrospect, the film looks small budget although struggling along well enough. Competent without any artistic genius sort of thing.

Witty and charming, Fakers is a pleasant enough gangster movie that keeps most of the violence off-screen, but has too little substance to be memorable.

Unlike some people who have commented on this film, I have actually seen it and therefore feel more qualified to add my own comments. Considering the age of the director, I think this is an excellent effort. The story is fast moving and amusing. There is plenty of action without unnecessary violence or profanity. There is a definite similarity to the old and highly successful Ealing comedies. The film was made on a limited budget as are many films of this genre but this certainly does not have any adverse affect on the enjoyment of the film. Please let us have more positive comments on our British made films from the younger generations, our film industry needs as much support as it can get.
