A comedy masterpiece it is not, but if you like daft comedy, this is a film you'd enjoy.
Yes, the whole thing is daft, but it's not trying to be anything other than what it is! There's some really dark, humorous moments in there and it's an easy watch.
Some really good performances too set against an unconvincing backdrop. It's more like a play so the authenticity of the scenes and cinematography aren't as important in this film in my opinion. It's a bit like This is England meets Shameless, crossed with Sean of the Dead.
Don't expect Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, just enjoy it for what it is. Some will love it, some will hate it.

I'm not sure where to start with this, in short, it is one terrible film that has a very weak plot and very very very weak storyline. If you are a fan of overly choreographed fight scenes with textbook blood and gore, then you may like this film, however, it is tedious watch what seems to be 90% of the film presented as a fight scene. I would say that the cast in this film were not cast for the film, the film was created to keep the usual suspects cast together. Yet another cockney (mockney) fight fest with all the cliché you can shake a stick at. A terrible, terrible film that I struggled to watch through to the end due to the predictable plot line and tawdry performances. Very unbelievable and tedious waste of a watch.
After reading the reviews here, I decided to watch it, but was a little disappointed.
The acting was good... grounded, believable and some really good performances. The plot was a solid, if not spectacular, but ended quite disneyesque, which spoiled things for me. If the outcome had been a little less far fetched and intricate (whilst trying to be a little too clever), it would have left a better taste.
Given it was a directorial debut for Rowan Athale, I expect good things to come from him
Worth a watch, not a terrible film, but not the British indie classic some reviews would have you believe it to be.
