Rented this last night in huge anticipation after watching and adoring Bermondsey tales (one of my favourite films ever). This is similar genre with a number of the same cast, however overall I found this didn't quite hit the spot and was slightly dissapointing.
On one level it does what it says on the tin, it has it's laugh out loud moments, some good performances and it is very much a comedy romp, but on the whole it misses something. The humour and story is far more basic than Bermondsey Tales.
Enjoyable? Yes Funny? In parts very funny Great? No sadly not
So if you are into gangster comedy like myself then you should watch a gangsters kiss, however it doesn't compete with the other greats like Snatch, Lock Stock and the recently released and far superior Bermondsey Tales, which is not to be missed!

I watched Bermondsey Tales at the cinema and really enjoyed it! I watched again last night at home and loved it even more, there was so much I missed at the first watch.
Bermondsey Tales, is honestly one of the funniest films I've seen in a long time, with great vivid characters and lots of stand out performances. The dialogue is sharp with more plot twists than a rollercoaster, however what I originally missed was how intelligent the plot was.
On second viewing I noticed how smart everything fits together, how every action has a consequence leading to the ultimate downfall of the family. Even with the prologue and epilogue the film has the feel of a Shakespearean tragedy.
As a fan of British gangster films and classical English lit and theatre, I honestly put this film in my top ten of all times. It's hilarious, sharp, gritty and very smart film, plus I love John Hannah.
