Two Down

I watched this movie today and I was positively surprised. This movie was action packed, but still tasteful and fun to watch. I haven't seen the prequel and still enjoyed this movie a lot. If you want to see a good movie with comedy, this is a must watch!

Three words... WOW, what an amazing movie, the story starts getting better and better, such a beautiful story, with so much touching moments, amazing soundtrack, congratulations to Two Down , total respect to you guys.

I was fortunate to stumble across this at a festival, The Artemis Women in Film Festival in California, and loved every minute of it. As and Englishman living in L.A it was wonderful seeing London again but without the gritty gangster feel that seems to come from most UK films of this sort, nor the glamour that Hollywood tends to see the city through. From the classy opening scene with credits I could see the filmmakers had taken great care to create a film to span decades but set in a modern world. It told me that this was going to be a very well crafted film indeed. And I wasn't disappointed. The script, shots, editing, music is stylish, well thought out and brilliantly executed. And the acting is sublime. Not one bum note in the 88 minutes that the film runs for. The pacing is perfect, allowing us into the strange world of 'John Thomas', a very British joke!, but never feeling as if it should be faster. It's a low budget affair to be sure, but for a debut feature it sings of promise for the filmmakers and I'm intrigued to see where they go from here. Bigger and brighter things I'm sure.

I produce, I don't review, but after seeing that there are some obviously malicious and fake (I hate that word at the moment but there it is), reviews about this movie, I had to write what I thought. (It's becoming common practice now and I despise it).

I produce movies in LA and sometimes the UK and have done so for almost 5 decades. So for young filmmakers like these to understand the kind of movies we were doing in the 1970's, but but to set it in present day London, with all kinds of twists, and on what I presume was a small budget, is nothing short of miraculous.

And to those fake reviews who say 'who would have have rated this 10', well look at all the awards and reviews from actual reviewers in publications....lots of people. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but this looks like some kind of business plan that some bitter person has paid for.

The script is so well crafted, the acting and direction superb and the music is just spot on. This film is doing very well out there, and for a reason. I can't wait for their next one, which has already been made, so this one can't be that bad otherwise they wouldn't have been given the cash...

You may not love this movie as much as we did, but you're going to like it a lot, I promise. From an old time movie guy, I watched this and had hope from British film again (sorry guys!, but the UK have been having issues recently).... AS

I came across this on Flix Premiere and it is by far one of the best films they have on there. It's a clever, witty, British hit-man movie with one foot in the 1970's, and I mean that as the highest compliment.

For a debut feature it has high production values, the acting is superb, the writing is subtle and intelligent but darkly funny. What more do you want from a movie.

There are a few small action sequences but they feel more like real life scuffles than full blown martial arts fights, which is so refreshing to see.

It's looks beautiful, is brilliantly directed by Matthew Butler Hart and there are some real star turns from the three main actors.

I can't wait to see what these guys do next. In the meantime I'll be happy to watch this again.
