The Bezonians

Story elements with potential but overacting, excessive character "development" via narration, lingering on boring shots and oddly long scenes makes it unexciting as well as predictable. Not the worst movie I've seen lately but not one I'd recommend.

Some infrequent glimmers of very good dialogue are quickly overwhelmed by overused narration to replace character development, unlikable or annoying characters, implausible and overly long scenes that appear unrelated or irrelevant. If you like Vinnie Jones, he is only in the movie for 5 minutes. The Lola and Willard problem could have been more easily resolved than waiting like lambs to the slaughter. Why did we have to sit through Plato's overly long story about his experience with abortion that did not advance the plot. Sometimes interesting and quirky; but, not worth the time.

What is this...??? Poor story telling, poor acting, the Cypriot community would be appalled by this pathetic script. The Director/Writer needs to step away from his duties. The acting was laughable, some of the long scenes seriously made no sense. I cant believe Vinnie Jones accepted his cameo role regardless of the film billed like he was the main actor... clever marketing having his face front the film. Every single actor cant be blamed as my god this was shot so poorly, scenes were too long and irrelevant, all cuts were too mind numbly long. I found all characters to be annoying and truly agitating. These good reviews are no doubt created by friends and even his production team. HOW WAS THIS FILM EVER FUNDED!?!

This is a poor man's lock stock, can see trying to replicate but it lacks the acting, story and the music soundtrack. As others have said many scenes with no relevance to story, almost like scenes were dropped on the floor and put in order of pick up.

Vinnie does not appear that much so do not expect the classic vinnie villain from previous films, they could really have got anyone in.

Narrating is good and needed, possibly needed a bit more grit ala lock stock as more towards reading a bedtime story but it keeps you informed on the random screen happenings.

All in all its not dire, watchable if bored.

Really enjoying films by this director, same director from smokin guns. Really loved watching the actor who played Plato, reminded me of Al Pacino. It was kind of like the Greek version of Goodfellas, some classic scenes especially the debate on who's the best actor, Pacino or De Niro. A proper lads film, sex, violence & humour. If you're a fan of lock stock here's another British classic.
