Awful acting, boring script - felt like a second rate Guy Ritchie movie - aiming to be a British crime movie but full.of Irish characters. It's his fault, he started this confusing genre.
This movie pushes the boundaries of how much of a diabolical script can sound funny if spoken in an Irish accent - the answer, not very much of it.
I found myself scrolling on my phone several times throughout the movie. There was no plot interesting enough to drag me back.
Believe me, this movie is terrible - don't waste your money and an hour and a half of your life.
Is this the end of good old British crime dramas, made in the UK and starring accomplished British actors? - Unfortunately it seems so and it really doesn't work.

Just because this film stars Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Melissa Leo, and Antonio Banderas don't be fooled. This is the most tiresome, tedious, uninteresting, and downright boring movie any of the above actors has ever been in. I'd like to blame the Covid area, or the writers strike. But that doesn't explain why this group of particular actors chose to be in this movie. My one word review would be rancid.

I started watching it because of the (allt time great) actor Antonio Banderas, but even his performance isnt enough to make this worth my while...
The bad: Antonio Banderas' character is pretty silly, but at least his performance has got some charm to it. BUT the other (unknown) Irish actors are plain bland and acting way below average. Mind you, better like watching subtitles otherwise you wouldnt understand half of the Irish accents.
NOT funny. NOT thrilling. NOT original. It's a gangsta comedy WANNABE. The Irish arent any good at making movies. The Brits are. But this is an Irish production and it painfully shows. NOT recommended, not even for the Antonio Banderas fans, of which I am one!

The Clean is a badly made film with half hearted attempt. Though the length of the film is short, it becomes boring right from the start. There is no comedy, no thrills and hardly any action that seems impossible when one man with two pistols taking circles and kill ten at a time who fires with machine gums !!!! This is ridiculous. Performances are very bad except may Benderes who tried different approach to his acting. All the four cleaners are missing matched as there is no chemistry among them. A police is involved in the crimes of Benderes is killed. This only one police officer controlled the dark side of Benderes. Funny ! The film is below average.
Despite having a seemingly solid cast, the end result of this film isn't anything special as the finish product comes off as an over the top action comedy trying too hard to be style over substance and too hard on being witty or funny but it simply isn't interesting. This is apparently a British film and the humor here just isn't funny. The plot isn't exactly anything to fully invest in and at times was rather confusing. There was a few solid action shot gun sequences but overall things felt a little too cartoonish and unrealistic. In the end it's simply a run of the mill action comedy without much interest.
